Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A liquid with a density of 800 kg/m³ flows in a pipe of diameter 0.1 m at a speed of 2 m/s with a dynamic viscosity of 0.002 Pa·s. Determine the flow type.

💡 Hint: Remember, Re > 4000 indicates turbulent flow.

Question 2

Design a pipeline system that ensures laminar flow for a fluid with a density of 900 kg/m³ and viscosity of 0.003 Pa·s. What should the maximum velocity be?

💡 Hint: Consider how to keep the Re below 2300 while factoring in fluid properties.
