Question 1

What defines a turbulent flow?

  • Smooth and orderly movement
  • Chaotic and irregular movement
  • Constant velocity movement

💡 Hint: Consider definitions we discussed in class.

Question 2

Is a Reynolds number below 2300 indicative of turbulent flow?

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A fluid with density 1200 kg/m³ and viscosity 0.002 Pa·s flows through a pipe of 0.1 m diameter at a speed of 3 m/s. Determine if the flow is laminar, transitional, or turbulent.

💡 Hint: Make sure you use the correct formula and factor in all parameters.

Question 2

What would happen to the Reynolds number if the pipe diameter were halved while keeping all other factors constant? Discuss the impact on flow type.

💡 Hint: Think through how changing each parameter affects the classification.
