Question

The figure below shows a device known as a fluid drive used to transfer a torque from the driver shaft to the driven shaft through a lubricant (fluid) occupying the fluid in the gap between the two shafts. The lubricant serves to reduce the wear of the structural components. In the fluid drive below, the driver rotates at a constant angular speed 1, and the driven disk (and shaft) rotates at a lower angular speed, 2 A torque vector with magnitude T is transmitted by the driver to the driven shaft. Develop an expression for the slip velocity ( 1- 2) in terms of the applied torque T, the narrow spacing h between the two discs, and the molecular viscosity of the fluid enclosed between the two discs (each of diameter D).
