Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a turbulent flow in a pipe, calculate the shear stress if the velocity defect at a specific radius is 2 m/s and the fluid density is 800 kg/m³.

💡 Hint: Focus on deriving u* first using the velocity defect.

Question 2

If the height of surface irregularities is 0.1 mm and the viscous sublayer thickness is measured at 0.4 mm, classify the boundary as smooth, rough, or transitional.

💡 Hint: Refer to the classification criteria discussed in class.
