2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define Reynolds Number.
Think about what factors are considered in fluid flow.
What is laminar flow?
Remember the characteristics of smooth liquid movement.
What is the threshold Reynolds number for laminar flow?
Think back to the discussed values in class.
True or False: Turbulent flow is typically smooth and orderly.
Reflect on the definitions of laminar and turbulent flows.
Calculate the Reynolds number of oil with a viscosity of 0.5 Pa.s flowing through a pipe with a 15 cm diameter at 6 m/s. Determine if the flow is laminar, transitional, or turbulent.
Use the fluid dynamics formula for Reynolds number.
Design a pipe system that optimally reduces turbulence in a fluid delivery system operating at Reynolds numbers ranging up to 3500. Outline your approach.
Consider how material selection and pipe dimensions affect flow.
