In the study of turbulent flow, turbulent viscous dissipation rate ? (rate of energy loss per unit mass) is known to be a function of length scale l and velocity scale u′ of the large-scale turbulent eddies. Using dimensional analysis (Buckingham pi and the method of repeating variables) and showing all of your work, generate an expression for ? as a function of l and u′.
A stirrer is used to mix chemicals in a tank let tank diameter Dtank and average liquid depth htank. The shaft power W . supplied to the stirrer blades is a function of stirrer diameter D, liquid density ? ,liquidviscosity ? , and the angular velocity ? of the spinning blades.Use the method of repeating variables to generate a dimensionless relationship between these parameters. Show all your work and be sure to identify your Π groups, modifying them as necessary.
