Calculate the friction drag on a plate (length 0.8 m and width 0.3 m) up to the point at which the boundary layer flow changes from laminar to turbulent. The water is flowing from both sides of the plate at a rate of 3 m/s. (u = 9 × 104 Pa-s ; critical Reynolds number Rec = 5 x 105)
Air is flowing over a smooth plate with a velocity of 10 m/s. The length of the plate is 1.2 m and width is 0.8 m. If laminar boundary layer exists upto a value of Re = 2 x 105, then find the maximum thickness of laminar boundary layer if the kinematic viscosity of air is 0.15 stokes.
Fluid Mechanics Last fall, researchers using a manned submarine discovered coral reefs at unprecedented ocean depths of 1/2 mile, of the coast of South Carolina. Find the hydrostatic pressure at that depth. Find the fractional changes in density (drho/rho) and in volume (dV/V) for the seawater at that depth. The density of seawater at the surface of the ocean is 1025kg/m3, and the bulk modulus of elasticity of seawater is 2.34*109 Pa.
For a nonwetting liquid, such as water, the surface is convex since the force of cohesion will be greater than that of adhesion. Water is non-Newtonian. Temperature at which water has the highest density is usually taken as 4°C(39.2°F).
