Viscous laminar flow (Hagen Poiseuille)

Storyboard

When we assume laminar flow of a viscous fluid through a tube, we observe a pattern where the velocity is highest at the center and decreases to zero at the edges. The total flow is dependent on the cylindrical profile and is inversely proportional to the viscosity of the fluid, with a fourth power relationship to the radius.
