Chapter 9, Problem 5ICA
A fluid with a specific gravity of 0.91 and a viscosity of 0.38 pascal seconds [Pa s] is pumped through a 25-millimeter [mm] diameter smooth pipe at an average velocity of 2.6 meters per second [m/s]. Determine the Reynolds number in the pipe for the system and indicate if the flow is laminar, transitional, or turbulent.

- Industries involved in viscosity measurement [27, 29] continue to use the CGS system ofunits, since centimeters and grams yield convenient numbers for many fl uids. The absoluteviscosity ( μ ) unit is the poise, named after J. L. M. Poiseuille, a French physician who in1840 performed pioneering experiments on water fl ow in pipes; 1 poise =1 g/(cm-s). Thekinematic viscosity ( ν ) unit is the stokes, named after G. G. Stokes, a British physicist whoin 1845 helped develop the basic partial differential equations of fl uid momentum; 1 stokes =1 cm 2 /s. Water at 20 ° C has μ ~~ 0.01 poise and also ν ~~ 0.01 stokes.
