Question

The flow of glycerine (kinematic viscosity
Vg = 5 x 104 m²/s) in an open channel is
to be modeled in laboratory flume using water
(vw) 10-6 m²/s) as the flowing fluid. If both
gravity and viscosity are important, what should
be the length scale (i.e, ratio of prototype to model
dimensions) for maintaining dynamic similarity?
