2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the definition of laminar flow?
Think about how different layers of a fluid behave.
What does a Reynolds number below 2000 indicate?
Recall the classification of flow types based on Reynolds number.
What characterizes laminar flow?
Visualize how a well-behaved stream of fluid would flow.
Is the Reynolds number more than 2000 indicative of laminar flow?
Remember the categorization of flow types based on the Reynolds number.
A fluid with viscosity 1.5 Pascal seconds flows through a rectangular channel 0.5 meters wide and 0.75 meters high at an average velocity of 0.4 meters per second. Calculate the pressure drop over 5 meters assuming laminar flow.
Start by determining the area and apply Poiseuille's law.
Design an experiment to measure the effect of pipe diameter on the Reynolds number of a given fluid, including a set of expected outcomes and calculations.
Consider how reducing the diameter affects the flow velocity and what that means for laminar vs turbulent flow.
