Question 7
The following formulas are commonly used by engineers to predict the lift and drag of an airfoil:
where L and Dare the lift and drag forces, V is the airspeed, S is the wing span, is the air density, and CL and CD are the lift and drag coefficients. Both CL and CD depend on α , the angle of attack, the angle between the relative air velocity and the airfoil’s chord line.
Wind tunnel experiments for a particular airfoil have resulted in the following formulas.
where α is in degrees.

(a) Express the non-dimensional pressure difference and power as separate functions of the other non-dimensional groups. (b) Tests on a model pump are performed at 0.5 × full scale, at a rotation rate that is 2 × the full-scale value. To achieve dynamic similarity in the model test: (i) what would the volume flow rate of the water need to be in the model test compared to the full-scale? (ii) What would the pressure difference be compared to the full scale? (iii) What would the power consumption be relative to the full scale?arrow_forward

Casson model was discussed in class in the context of blood rheology. This phenomenological model is often used to describe the shear stress vs. shear rate relationship in colloidal suspensions where particle aggregation might cause the measured viscosity to increase at low shear rates. In an experiment, data for the shear stress and the applied shear rate S were fitted to the Casson model written below (in a slightly different form compared to that given in the lecture notes): √t = √²₁+√as. (1) The best least square fit parameters to the experimental data were found to be 40 mPa for the yield stress to and 2.5 mPa s for the parameter a, which is referred to as the plastic viscosity. a. Using Eq. (1), derive an expression for the fluid viscosity u as a function of S. b. Plot the viscosity of the fluid as a function of S for 0.1s¹ ≤S≤ 10 s¹. c.
