Lubricants

Lubricant can be expressed as the substance that is applied among surfaces to control the wear and tear and improve performance. Lubricants play an essential part in the safety of machinery components like gears, shaft, linkage, cam, clutches, and many others. The quantities which affect the amount of lubricant are temperature, surrounding conditions, speed of the components, and many more.

Question 2: The pressure drop, AP, in a horizontal pipe depends on the pipe diameter, d, pipe length, L, pipe roughness, ɛ, average velocity, V, density of the fluid, p, and absolute viscosity of the fluid, u. Express the variables in non-dimensional form using Buckhingham-Pi theorem
An incompressible fluid oscillates harmonically (V = Vosinut, where Vis the velocity) with a frequency of 9 rad/s in a 6-in.-diameter pipe. A 1/5 scale model is to be used to determine the pressure difference per unit length, Ap, (at any instant) along the pipe. Assume that Api= f(D, Vo, w, t, u, p) where D is the pipe diameter, w the frequency, t the time, the u fluid viscosity, and p the fluid density. If the same fluid is used in the model and the prototype, at what frequency should the model operate? Wm i rad/s
