Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A lake has a Reynolds number of 2000 and a Schmidt number of 500. Calculate the Sherwood number if the mass transfer coefficient is 0.8, the diffusion coefficient is 1.2 m²/s, and the characteristic length is 3 meters.

💡 Hint: Apply the Sherwood number formula accurately with the given values.

Question 2

Discuss how changing the fluid’s properties, like viscosity affecting the Reynolds number, would impact the Sherwood number calculation and mass transfer efficiency in a real-case scenario.

💡 Hint: Connect fluid dynamics principles with mass transfer evaluations.
