A sphere of radius R=0.2 m is placed in incompressible irrotational flow with =10 m/s at sea level (The fluid has a density of ρ=1.2kg/m3 and pressure of 101325 pa). Calculate: The stagnation pressure at the top (θ=0∘) The pressure at the equator (θ=90∘) Compare both pressures to the free-stream dynamic pressure.

Question

A sphere of radius R=0.2 m is placed in incompressible irrotational flow with =10 m/s at sea level (The fluid has a density of ρ=1.2kg/m3 and pressure of 101325 pa). Calculate:

  • The stagnation pressure at the top (θ=0)
  • The pressure at the equator (θ=90)
  • Compare both pressures to the free-stream dynamic pressure.
