Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A fluid with a viscosity of 0.9 Pa.s flows through a circular pipe of 0.1 m diameter. If the flow rate is 0.01 m³/s, determine the pressure drop over 10 m using the appropriate equations.

💡 Hint: Rearrange to isolate dp/dx.

Question 2

Analyze a scenario where a liquid is flowing through pipes of different diameters (0.05 m and 0.1 m) at the same flow rate. Use Reynolds number to discuss which pipe might experience laminar or turbulent flow.

💡 Hint: Recall that smaller diameters typically promote laminar flow.
