Problem Statement
Fluid flows through a conduit with a quarter circle cross-section. The profile of the velocity in the z-direction can beapproximated by:
])/4(1[ ])/(1[ )/( 22 RrRrvv Az
With the coordinate system as shown and where vA is a constant equal to 20 cm/s and R=30 cm. Find the Volumetric flowrate Q and the average velocity.

The circular shape of the conduit suggests that we use cylindricalcoordinates to solve the problem.

The average velocity is found by diving volumetric flowrate by area.
vz
Vave represents the average of all of the velocities over the velocity profile.
