Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given a scenario where fluid velocity increases sharply past an object, analyze the potential impact on pressure and discuss the implications.
💡 Hint: Consider Bernoulli's equation and pressure relationships.
Visualize a complex flow around varying geometries. Discuss how streamlines, pathlines, and streaklines would appear and behave.
💡 Hint: Use examples to illustrate each line’s behavior.
