Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Calculate the momentum flux for water flowing through a pipe with a diameter of 0.5m at an average velocity of 3m/s. Use a correction factor of 1.2.

💡 Hint: Remember to convert diameter to radius when calculating area.

Question 2

Discuss the implications of choosing a control volume that does not align with the velocity vector of fluid flow.

💡 Hint: Consider the physics of flow direction and how it impacts the forces calculated.
