Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A small model of a bridge is tested in a wind tunnel. If the model has a Reynolds number of 30,000 and the testing velocity is 20 m/s, determine the necessary fluid density if the model's characteristic length is 0.1 m and viscosity is 0.002 Pa.s.

💡 Hint: Make sure to rearrange the formula correctly before calculating.

Question 2

In an experiment, two shapes were tested: a sphere (Re = 100) and a cylinder (Re = 200). Discuss how the differences in these Reynolds numbers could affect the predicted drag forces in a fluid flow scenario.

💡 Hint: Focus on how shape influences flow and resulting forces.
