Chapter 9, Problem 7RQ
  1. 7. A sludge mixture having a specific gravity of 2.93 and a viscosity of 0.09 grams per centimeter second [g/(cm s)] is pumped from a reactor to a holding tank. The pipe is a 2 1 2 inch [in] diameter pipe. The velocity is 1.8 meters per second [m/s]. Determine the Reynolds number in the pipe for the system and indicate if the flow is laminar, in transition, or turbulent.
