Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Analyze a spillway with a known Froude number of 3.5. Discuss the implications of this number on the design and flow behavior.
💡 Hint: Consider how rapid water flow and gravitational impact shape the design.
Propose a design for measuring the viscosity of an unknown fluid sample and how it could affect the flow rate in a controlled environment.
💡 Hint: Think about how viscosity changes with temperature and how that affects flow.
