Question 1

What characterizes turbulent flow?

  • A smooth
  • steady flow
  • Chaotic changes in flow properties
  • Linear variation of velocity

💡 Hint: Remember how a lot of currents interact in a fast-moving stream.

Question 2

True or False: The viscous sublayer is where velocity changes significantly.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider what happens right next to the wall.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A pipe with a diameter of 15 cm has surface irregularities of height 0.3 mm. The viscous sublayer thickness is 2 mm. Classify the boundary type.

💡 Hint: Ratio calculations are key to solving this.

Question 2

A turbulent flow scenario has u_max = 5 m/s at the centerline. If the parameter u* is calculated to be 0.5 m/s, and y is 0.1 m, determine the velocity at this y position.

💡 Hint: Ensure to convert the units to SI throughout the calculation.
