Chapter 1, Problem 1.9P

Consider two different flows over geometrically similar airfoil shapes, one airfoil being twice the size of the other. The flow over the smaller airfoil has freestream properties given by T = 200 K , ρ = 1.23 kg/m 3 , and V = 100 m/s . The flow over the larger airfoil is described by T = 800 K, ρ = 1.739 kg/m 3 , and V = 200 m/s . Assume that both μ and a are proportional to T 1 / 2 . Are the two flows dynamically similar?

In an oil pool, a small steel ball is released from the surface (y=0) without initial velocity. The strength of the resistance force exerted by the oil against the movement of the ball is directly proportional to the speed of the ball (Fd = k*V , k: constant). Neglect the buoyant force exerted by the oil. (m = 0.2kg, k = 0.843550 kg/s, g = 9.81 m/s^2). a-) What is the limit speed of ball ( Vlim)? b-) What is the time it takes for the speed of the ball to reach 99% of the limit speed after it is released from the surface? c-) What is the depth at which the ball's velocity reaches 99% of the limit velocity after it is released from the surface?
Consider a Lear jet flying at a velocity of 250 m/s at an altitude of 10 km,where the density and temperature are 0.414 kg/m3 and 223 K,respectively. Consider also a one-fifth scale model of the Lear jet beingtested in a wind tunnel in the laboratory. The pressure in the test section ofthe wind tunnel is 1 atm = 1.01 × 105 N/m2. Calculate the necessaryvelocity, temperature, and density of the airflow in the wind-tunnel testsection such that the lift and drag coefficients are the same for thewind-tunnel model and the actual airplane in flight.
An oil jet (S.G = 0.8) is hitting a fixed vane at flow rate of 0.3 m³/s as shown in the figure. The values of V1 = 20.7 m/s and V2 = 6.21 m/s. What is the external reactions in the x-direction needed to hold this fixed vane? Assume water density = 1000 kg/m³. V₂ S 120°
