Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A new fluid is introduced for an experiment involving drag on a sphere. The density of the fluid is 1200 kg/m³, and the dynamic viscosity is 0.0012 Pa.s. Calculate the dimensionless Reynolds number if the diameter is 0.1 m and the flow velocity is 3 m/s.

💡 Hint: Recall the formula for Reynolds number and substitute the values properly.

Question 2

Using Buckingham's Pi Theorem, if you have 6 variables in a fluid dynamics problem with 3 essential dimensions, how many independent dimensionless groups can you find? Explain your reasoning.

💡 Hint: Remember n is the count of variables, k is the number of dimensions.
