We want to predict the drag force on a remote-control airplane as it flies through air
having a density of 1.21 kg/m³ and a viscosity of 1.76x10- Pa-s. The airplane's
fuselage has a diameter of 200 mm and the airplane will fly through air at a speed
of 32 m/s. A model of the airplane's fuselage will be tested in a pressurized wind
tunnel. The diameter of the model is 75 mm and the density and viscosity of the air
in the wind tunnel are 3.00 kg/m³ and 1.82× 10-5 Pa-s, respectively.
a) The diameter of the airplane's fuselage will be used to define the Reynolds
number Re, for the flow around the fuselage. Compute the Reynolds number for
the flow around the airplane's fuselage (answer: Re, = 4.40x 10').
b) Find the speed of the air that should be used to test a model of the fuselage in
the wind tunnel to correctly model dynamic conditions (answer: 35.6 m/s).
c) The model is tested in the wind tunnel at four speeds that bracket the speed
computed above. The measured drag forces on the…
The drag force on a submarine, which is moving on the surface, is to be determined by a test on
a model which is scaled down to one-twentieth of the prototype. The test is to be carried in a
towing tank, where the model submarine is moved along a channel of liquid. The density and the
kinematic viscosity of the seawater are 1010 kg/m³ and 1.3x10-6 m 2/s, respectively. The speed
of the prototype is 2.6 m/s. Assume that F = f(V, L. g. p.), using pi-theorem and similarity
principle to:
a) Determine the speed at which the model should be moved in the towing tank.
b) Determine the kinematic viscosity of the liquid that should be used in the towing tank.
Consider a Falling Sphere Viscometer, which is used to measure the viscosity
μ of a fluid by observing the terminal velocity of a heavy sphere (density Ps
and diameter D) falling under gravity in a column of the fluid (density pf).
(a) Use Dimensional Analysis to derive a formula for the drag force
exerted on the sphere by the viscous fluid when it is moving at speed v
through the fluid.
(b) How is the terminal velocity of the sphere related to the fluid viscosity?
(c) If the sphere starts from rest, use Dimensional Analysis to predict the
timescale over which the sphere will reach its terminal velocity.
Please use dimensiona analysis to solve the problem
Answr for part a= Fd=KmuVD
answer for part b=V=Fd/kmuD
Please solve only for part C (part a and b no need to solve)and expalin in detail

- Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps and partly due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. To get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length, Ah (in mm), of a column of water 1.5 km high for a temperature increase of 1.2 °C.Assume the column is not free to expand sideways. As a model of the ocean, that is a reasonable approximation, as only parts of the ocean very close to the surface can expand sideways onto land, and only to a limited degree. As another approximation, neglect the fact that ocean warming is not uniform with depth. Properties of water: 3 = 210 x 10 /C. c= 4186 J/kg - °C, L; = 334 kJ/kg, Le = 2256 kJ/kg Enter you answer below (to the nearest mm): Ah (in mm) = Type your answer.arrow_forwardA seA A, soA A solid cylinder of diameter d, length and density p, falls due to gravity inside a pipe of diameter D. The clearance between the solid cylinder and the pipe is filled with a Newtonian fluid of density p and u. For this clearance fluid, the terminal velocity of the cylinder is determined to be V, assuming a linear velocity profile. However, if the clearance fluid was changed to a Newtonian fluid of density 2p and viscosity 2u, then for an assumed linear velocity profile, the terminal velocity of the cylinder was determined to be V,.
