Abstract
The present analysis is concerned with the velocity distribution in steady state, hydrodynamically fully developed, laminar flow for Newtonian fluids in rectangular ducts. The solutions describing velocity profiles and friction factors are derived by using the finite Fourier transform. The solution giving the two-dimensional velocity distribution is formally symmetric with respect to the rectangular Cartesian coordinates x and y, and provides more accurate numerical results, with shorter computational times, in comparison to the well known velocity distributions usually quoted in literature. © 1994.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
