Consider the flow of air and water in pipes of the same diameter, at the same temperature, and at the same mean velocity. Which flow is more likely to be turbulent? Why?

Calculate the Reynolds numbers for the flow of water through a nozzle with a radius of 0.270 cm and a garden hose with a radius of 0.940 cm, when the nozzle is attached to the hose. The flow rate through hose and nozzle is 0.485 L/s. (Assume the temperature of the water is 20°C.) (a) a nozzle with a radius of 0.270 cm Can the flow possibly be laminar? Yes No (b) a garden hose with a radius of 0.940 cm Can the flow possibly be laminar? Yes No

A fusiform aneurysm bulges or balloons out an artery on all sides (pictured below). If this aneurysm occurs in an aorta, the internal radius may increase from r₁ = 1.1 cm in the normal, healthy section to 12= = 2.2 cm in the diseased section (while staying at the same vertical height). The speed of blood m flow is v₁ = 0.42 in the normal section and the gauge pressure P₁ is 99.98 mmHg. The density of 1 S blood is 1060 kg m³ Fusiform Aneurysm Image from: http://www.okclipart.com/Fusiform-Aneurysm-Clip-Art30koqyaskv/ (a) Calculate the speed of blood v2 in the aneurysm. Answer to two significant figures. Think: What equations dictating the flow through the valve are valid, equation of continuity, Bernoulli or Poiseuille? What simplifications should you make regarding the blood flow. m V₂ = S (b) Calculate the pressure gradient AP = P aneurysm healthy aorta from the healthy aorta into the aneurysm. Think: What equations dictating the flow through the valve are valid, equation of…

Let the pressure gradient in the pipe be 1300 Pa/m and the diameter of the pipe be 4.0 m. What is the average speed through this pipe of 20 degrees celsius motor oil? Express your answer in millimeters per second. What is the average speed through this pipe of 100∘C motor oil? Express your answer in millimeters per second.

At what flow rate (in m3/s) might turbulence begin to develop in a water main with a 0.300 m diameter? Assume a 20°C temperature.

Consider a refrigeration truck traveling at 70 mi/h at a location where the air is at 1 atm and 80°F. The refrigerated compartment of the truck can be considered to be a 9-ft-wide, 8-ft-high, and 20-ft-long rectangular box. Assuming the airflow over the entire outer surface to be turbulent and attached (no flow separation), Using appropriate software, investigate the effect of truck speed on the total drag force acting on the top and side surfaces, and the power required to overcome it. Let the truck speed vary from 0 to 100 mi/h in increments of 10 mi/h. Tabulate and plot the results.
