When a very viscous fluid flows slowly past a vertical plate of height h and width b (see Fig. P13.12), pressure develops on the face of the plate. Assume that the pressure, p, at the midpoint of the plate is a function of plate height and width, the approach velocity, V, and the fluid viscosity, μ. Make use of dimensional analysis to determine how the pressure, p, will change when the fluid velocity, V, is doubled.
