Flow fluid about a line source
Problem Statement
Consider the symmetric radial flow of an incompressible, inviscid fluid outward from an infinitely long uniform source, coincident with the z-axis of a cylindrical coordinate system. Fluid is being generated at a volumetric rate Г per unit length of source.
a. Show that the Laplace equation for the velocity potential for this system is:
1r∂∂r (r ∂∅∂ r )=0
b. From the equation find the velocity potential, velocity and pressure as functions of position:
∅=−Γ2π
ln (r ) V r=Γ2 πr
Ρ∞−Ρ=ρΓ 2
8π 2r2
Where Ρ∞ is the value of the modified pressure far away from the source.
c. Discuss the applicability of the results in (b) to the flow about a well drilled into a large body of porous rock.
d. Sketch the flow net of streamlines and equipped liners
Analytical Analysis
Parameters given:
Steady state ∂∂ t
=0
Incompressible fluid i.e. constant density Inviscid fluid (viscosity, μ=0) Volumetric rate per unit length is Г
Flow of fluid is only in the radial direction, thus
vr=vr(r ); vθ=0 ; vz=0
From equation 4.2-1C, Axisymmetric Cylindrical coordinates with no dependence on θ, velocity components for stream function (ѱ) defined as:
vr=+1r∂ψ∂ z
vz=−1r∂∅∂ r
Any vector that has zero curl can be written in gradient of a scalar function such as
v=−∇∅=−i ∂∅∂r
=vr i. Therefore, vr=−∂∅∂r
Stream function ѱ(r) is defined as: vr=+1r∂ψ∂ z
Equating equations (nnnnnnn)
−∂∅∂r
=1r∂ψ∂z
Laplacian function of velocity potential is defined as: ∇2∅=∂2∅∂r 2
Rearranging the above term followed by differentiating with respect to r:
r∂∅∂ r
=−∂ψ∂z
∂∂ r (r ∂∅∂r )= ∂
∂r (−∂ψ∂ z )Recallψ is only a function of r , hence
∂ψ∂ z
=0
Therefore by substituting this relationship into the above equation the Laplace equation is:
∂∂ r (r ∂∅∂r )=0.
Alternatively, we can derive this equation from continuity equation as follows.
The equation for continuity in cylindrical coordinate is given by equation B.4-2:
∂ ρ∂t
+ 1r∂(ρr vr)∂r
+1r∂( ρ vθ)∂θ
+∂(ρ v z)∂ z
=0
vr=vr(r ) and steady state, incompressible fluid.
Recall that vz=0 i.e. no fluid flows along the z-direction since the length of the cylinder is infinite in this
direction. Also vθ=0since there is no circular rotation.
Thus, the continuity equation reduces to 1r∂(ρr vr)∂r
which in vector form is written as ∇ . v=0. Also
v=−∇∅ , therefore, we have;
∇ . v= -(∇ .∇∅ ¿= ∇2∅=0.
For purely radial flow, this laplace equation can be expressed as ∂2∅∂ r2
+ 1r∂∅∂r
=0. This can be written as
total differential since it is a 1D equation. Thus 1rddr (r d∅dr )=0.
Deriving velocity potential, velocity and pressure distribution
1rddr (r d∅d r )=0dd r (r d∅d r )=0Integrating the above term with respect to ‘r’ you will have:
rd∅d r
=C1
Further integration with respect to ‘r’ results into:
ϕ=C1 ln (r )+C2
Recall from velocity potential definition in eqn (YYY) above vr=−d∅d r
Therefore vr=−d∅d r
=−C1r
∴r vr=−C1
Volumetric rate per unit length (QL ) is given by Г
Q=vA=vr∂ A
Q=∬vr r ∂θ∂ z
Therefore QL

vr r ∂θ=∫0

−C1∂θ
QL
=−2π C1
∴C1=−Q2πL
=−Γ2π
Substituting C1 into eqn (PPPP), the velocity equation derived will be:
vr=Γ2πr
Velocity potential ф
vr=−∂∅∂r
=−C1r
Recall from eqn(ppp)
ϕ=C1 ln (r )+C2
Since flow is radially symmetric at r=0, maximum velocity acts at this point, thus
∂vr∂r
=0
∂vr∂r
= −Γ2π r2
=0
Hence
Γ=0 , vr=0
Therefore C1 at r=0 can be computed as:
C1=−Γ2 π
= 02 π
=0
