Consider a large dirigible (like the Goodyear blimp) with length L = 240 m, and average diameter D = 40 m moving at a speed U = 135 km/hr at high altitude where the air density is p = 0.9 kg/m³ and the dynamic viscosity is u = 1.8 x 10-5 N – s/m². Because of the large size of the blimp and its large radius of curvature the primary forces acting on it are due to shear stresses at the surface, and the entire surface area can be approximated by its layout as a flat plate. Determine the drag force acting on the dirigible due to shear stresses, and the power required for the engine.
In deriving the vorticity equation, we have used the identity V × (VP) = 0. Show that this identity is valid for any scalar λ by checking it in Cartesian and cylindrical coordinates.
(a) Use the y-momentum equation to show that the pressure gradient across the boundary layer is approximately zero i.e. = 0 . Assume the boundary layer to be a two-dimensional ду steady and incompressible flow. Neglect gravitational forces. State clearly all assumptions made. Use the Bernoulli's equation to prove that the pressure difference is given by (b) P2-P1 = -4pU? for a fluid with constant density p flowing from point 1 to point 2 where pi, U1, A1 are the pressure, velocity and flow cross-section area at point 1 and p2, U2, A2 are the pressure, velocity and flow cross-section area at point 2 respectively. The ratio of the cross-section area A1 = 3.
