Consider developing flow in a pipe of length L = 8 m, diameter D = 0.2 m, ρ = 1 kg/m3 , µ =2 × 10^−3 kg/m s, and entrance velocity u_in = 1 m/s (the conditions specified in the Problem Specification section). Use FLUENT with the "second-order upwind" scheme for momentum to solve for the flowfield on meshes of 100 × 5, 100 × 10 and 100 × 20 (axial divisions × radial divisions).

Hint: To interpret your results, you should keep in mind that the first or second-order upwind discretization applies only to the inertia terms in the momentum equation. The discretization of the viscous terms is always second-order accurate.
