Analyze the effects of varying viscosity in a CFD simulation of blood flow. What implications arise from assuming a different viscosity for blood compared to water?
💡 Hint: Consider how real-life blood flow behaves differently from water flow.
Derive a scenario where using Euler's equations instead of the Navier-Stokes equations might lead to inaccuracies in modeling a high Reynolds number flow.
💡 Hint: Reflect on conditions involving rapid flows and their real-world implications.
