Assume that the flow is uniform at both the inlet and the outlet sections and that the elbow has uniform depth.Problem Description:The channel has dimensions as shown in the figureThe flow velocity as the inlet is 10 cm/sUse the continuity equation to compute the flow velocity at exitObjective:To plot the velocity profile in the channelTo plot the velocity profile across the elbowYou are required to hand in print outs for the aboveFigure:IMPORTANT: Convert all dimensions and forces into SI units STARTING ANSYS Click on ANSYS in the programs menu.Select Interactive.The following menu comes up.
