Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a Reynolds number of 2500 for a fluid flowing in a circular pipe with a diameter of 0.25 m and dynamic viscosity of 0.002 Pa·s, determine if the flow is laminar, transitional, or turbulent.

💡 Hint: Align the given Reynolds number with the defined thresholds.

Question 2

A fluid with a density of 1050 kg/m³ and a dynamic viscosity of 0.005 Pa·s flows through a pipe at a velocity of 3 m/s. Calculate the Reynolds number and classify the flow regime.

💡 Hint: Apply the flow classification logic.
