Consider Problem 7.38. Experience shows that for ship-size propellers, viscous effects on scaling are small. Also, when cavitation is not present, the nondimensional parameter containing pressure can be ignored. Assume that torque, T, and power,
7.38 The thrust of a marine propeller is to be measured during “open-water” tests at a variety of angular speeds and forward speeds (“speeds of advance”). The thrust, FT, is thought to depend on water density, ρ, propeller diameter, D, speed of advance, V, acceleration of gravity, g, angular speed, ω, pressure in the liquid, p, and liquid viscosity, μ. Develop a set of dimensionless parameters to characterize the performance of the propeller. (One of the resulting parameters, gD/V2, is known as the Froude speed of advance.)

- Long flights at midlatitudes in the Northern Hemisphere encounter the jet stream, an eastward airflow that can affect a plane's speed relative to Earth's surface. If a pilot maintains a certain speed relative to the air (the plane's airspeed), the speed relative to the surface (the plane's ground speed) is more when the flight is in the direction of the jet stream and less when the flight is opposite the jet stream. Suppose a round-trip flight is scheduled between two cities separated by 3200 km, with the outgoing flight in the direction of the jet stream and the return flight opposite it. The airline computer advises an airspeed of 810 km/h, for which the difference in flight times for the outgoing and return flights is 72 min.
