Question 1

Which of the following best describes compressible flow?

  • Density remains constant
  • Density varies significantly
  • No effect of temperature

💡 Hint: Consider how density behaves under pressure changes.

Question 2

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A jet airplane ascends rapidly, where the air density changes as it climbs. What principle should be applied to analyze the airflow around the wings?

💡 Hint: Consider the effects of pressure variations with altitude.

Question 2

Evaluate a pipeline system where water flows steadily. If the pressure increases significantly, should we reassess our assumption of incompressibility?

💡 Hint: Think about compressibility effects at high pressure.
