PLEASE BOX YOUR ANSWERS Problem 2 In an experiment conducted in a laboratory, the surface tension (Y) acting on a rotating square plate in a viscous fluid is a function of the external torque (t), plate length (a), area moment of inertia of plate (I), specific weight of the fluid (Y) and angular displacement of the plate (0). Using Buckingham-Pi theorem, find a suitable set of pi terms (in M, L and T primary dimensions). Your final answer should be written in proper functional form. Refer Table 5.1/ page-296 for secondary dimension of the variables.

You are employed as a mechanical engineer within an unnamed research center, specializing in the development of innovative air conditioning systems. Your division is tasked with providing computer-based modeling and design solutions using computational fluid dynamics through ANSYS software. Your primary responsibilities involve the analysis of horizontal channel dynamics to meet specific criteria. Under the guidance of your immediate supervisor, you have been assigned unique responsibilities within an ongoing project. As a member of the research team, your role includes constructing an appropriate model and executing a sequence of simulation iterations to explore and enhance channel performance. Figure 1 provides a visualization of the horizontal channel under consideration. Consider 2D, incompressible, steady flow in a horizontal channel at a Reynolds number of 150. The schematic below illustrates the channel flow, not drawn to scale. For simplicity, neglect gravity. The channel's…

[1] Consider steady flow of air through the diffuser portion of a wind tunnel. Along the centerline of the diffuser, the air speed decreases from uentrance to ut as sketched. Measurements reveal that the centerline air speed decreases parabolically through the diffuser. Write an equation for centerline speed u(x), based on the parameters given here, Dee x=0 to x=L.

Hi, Please help me with this question and please show the full solution. Thank you very much

The thrust F of a Free propeller, either aircraft of marine, depends upon density ρ, the rotation rate n in r/s, the diameter D, and the forward velocity V. Viscous effects are slight and neglected here. Tests of a 25-cm-diameter model aircraft propeller, in a sea-level wind tunnel, yield the following thrust data at a velocity of 20 m/s : Rotation Rate, r/min____4800____6000____8000 Measured thrust, N____6.1____19____47 Use the dimensionless data to predict the thrust, in Newtons, of a similar 1.6-m-diameter prototype propeller when rotating at 3800 r/min and flying at 225 mi/h at 4000-m standard altitude.

The power input P to a centrifugal pump is assumed to be a function of the volume flow Q, impeller diameter D, rotational rate Ohm, the density rho, and viscosity mu of the fluid. Rewrite this as a dimensionless relationship

A jet engine on a test stand directs a stream of hot exhaust gasses against a vemcal wall. All of the exhaust gas leaving the wall after impact is in the y-z plane (ie no "x" direction velocity). The mass rate is 200 kg/s and the velocity is 400 m/s. (Note that the density and viscosity are not relevant) What is the force on the wall (include direction)?

A water pump increases the pressure of the water passing through it. The flow is assumed to be incompressible. For each of the three cases listed below, how does average water speed change across the pump? In particular, is Vout less than, equal to, or greater than Vin? Show your equations, and explain. (a) Outlet diameter is less than inlet diameter (Dout < Din) (b) Outlet and inlet diameters are equal (Dout = Din) (c) Outlet diameter is greater than inlet diameter (Dout > Din)

(b) A wind-tunnel experiment is performed on a small 1:5 linear-scale model of a car, in order to assess the drag force F on a new full-size car design. A dimensionless "drag coefficient" Ca is defined by C, =- pu'A where A is the maximum cross-sectional area of the car in the flow. With the model car, a force of 3 N was recorded at a flow velocity u of 6 m s. Assuming that flow conditions are comparable (i.e., at the same Reynolds number), calculate the expected drag force for the full-sized car when the flow velocity past it is 31 m s (equivalent to 70 miles per hour). [The density of air p= 1.2 kg m.]

EXAMPLE Leaking Tank. Outflow of Water Through a Hole (Torricelli's Law) This is another prototype engineering problem that leads to an ODE. It concerns the outflow of water from a cylindrical tank with a hole at the bottom.

Particles in liquids achieve terminal speed very quickly. One can measure the time it takes for a particle to fall a certain distance and then calculate the constant B. Suppose a steel ball bearing (mass=0.86 grams) is dropped in a container of motor oil. It takes 12 s to fall 0.60 m. (a) Estimate the terminal speed, Viem, assuming the ball bearing reaches terminal speed almost immediately. (answer: Vterm 0.050 m/s) (b) Calculate B. (answer: 0.17 kg/s) (e) What is the speed of the ball bearing 11 ms after it is dropped? (answer: 0.044 m/s)

A paramecium is an elongated unicellular organism with approximately 50 μmin diameters and 150 μmin lengths. It swims through water by whip-like movements of cilia, small hairs on the outside of its body. Because it moves "head first" through the water, drag is determined primarily by its diameter and only secondarily by its length, so it's reasonable to model the paramecium as a 70-μm diameter sphere. A paramecium uses 2.0 PW of locomotive power to propel itself through 20∘C water, where 1 pW = 1 picowatt = 10−12W.   What is its swimming speed in μm/s? Express your answer in micrometers per second.

As we learned, Bernoulli's equation is not to be used in many situations. Let's say you are examining changes between two points in a flow. Which ONE of these scenarios could you appropriately use Bernoulli's equation on? O A turbine is situated between the two points There are large changes in kinetic energy between the two points The mass flow rate between the two points changes with time There are large changes in density between the two points There are large viscous losses between the two points QUESTION 10 A 12 cm diameter jet of air strikes a plate positioned normal to the flow, with all air deflected away parallel to the plate.
