Calculate the mass flux for the laminar flow of a falling film using the velocity profile given in Problem 6.6.

Problem 6.6

The laminar flow of a falling film on a flat surface is illustrated in Figure P6.2. The Eulerian velocity field for this flow is given in Cartesian coordinates as

(a) Determine the location of the maximum fluid velocity in this flow field.

(b) Determine the position of the minimum fluid velocity in this flow field.

(c) Sketch (by hand or with a computer) the velocity profile as a function of the coordinate x (at constant z) for this flow field.
