This result is limited by the requirement that the Reynolds
number (pVD/u) be less than 1.0. Suppose a steel ball (SG =
7.87) of diameter 2.2 mm falls in SAE 25W oil (SG = 0.88)
at 20°C. The measured fall velocity is 8.4 cm/s. (a) What is
the viscosity of the oil, in kg/m-s? (b) Is the Reynolds num-
ber small enough for a valid estimate?
A fighter aircraft is to operate at 200 m/s in air at standard conditions ( = 1.2 kg/m3). Amodel is constructed to 1/20 scale (length ratio) and tested in a wind tunnel at the sameair temperature (same air viscosity) to determine the drag force. The drag force FD is afunction of the air density and viscosity , the velocity V and the cross section length ofthe airplane D.

The frequency of fluctuations of the wing at mach 2 is given by the non-homogenous 2nd order differential equation: With the boundary conditions: y(0) = 1 and y(1) = 0 (i.e., y = 1 when x = 0 and y = 0 when x = 1) By solving the homogenous form of this equation, complete the analysis and determine the amplitude (y) of vibration of the wing tip at mach 2.

- Water is flowing in a pipe with radius of 25.4 cm at velocity of 5 m/s. The viscosity of water is 1.131 Pa-s and its density is equal to 997.9 ??/?^3.What is its Reynolds number and type of fluid flow?arrow_forwardIn the field of air pollution control, one often needs to sample the quality of a moving airstream. In such measurements a sampling probe is aligned with the flow as sketched in Fig. A suction pump draws air through the probe at volume flow rate V· as sketched. For accurate sampling, the air speed through the probe should be the same as that of the airstream (isokinetic sampling). However, if the applied suction is too large, as sketched in Fig, the air speed through the probe is greater than that of the airstream (super iso kinetic sampling). For simplicity consider a two-dimensional case in which the sampling probe height is h = 4.58 mm and its width is W = 39.5 mm. The values of the stream function corresponding to the lower and upper dividing streamlines are ?l = 0.093 m2/s and ?u = 0.150 m2/s, respectively. Calculate the volume flow rate through the probe (in units of m3/s) and the average speed of the air sucked through the probe.arrow_forwardA seA A, soA A solid cylinder of diameter d, length and density p, falls due to gravity inside a pipe of diameter D. The clearance between the solid cylinder and the pipe is filled with a Newtonian fluid of density p and u. For this clearance fluid, the terminal velocity of the cylinder is determined to be V, assuming a linear velocity profile. However, if the clearance fluid was changed to a Newtonian fluid of density 2p and viscosity 2u, then for an assumed linear velocity profile, the terminal velocity of the cylinder was determined to be V,. From the results of these experiments, one may write that (A) V = V (C) 2 V= V (B) V=2 V, (D) V= 4 Varrow_forward
