How does the fluid velocity vary vertically between the two plates at the inlet?

1. Include a cut plot of the velocity in the x-direction. How does the fluid velocity vary
vertically between the two plates at the inlet? How does the fluid velocity vary vertically
between the two plates at the outlet? Why is the velocity profile different at the inlet and
outlet?
2. Include a screen capture of the particle tracing study. How does the particle tracer results
help you understand the flow through different locations in the flow (for example, the
walls and the center line)?
3. Write out the equation for the velocity distribution for laminar flow between two parallel
plates. Substitute in all known values based on the conditions of the CFD simulation.
4. Include a plot that compares the velocity profile obtained from the equation from
question 2 (analytical solution) and the velocity profile obtained from the simulation
(CFD solution). The final plot should contain two curves. Label the plot axes and
include a legend. If there are differences between the two velocity curves, discuss the
potential causes of this differencevvv
