Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What is the no-slip boundary condition?

  • The velocity at the boundary is always zero
  • Fluid velocity is less than boundary velocity
  • Fluid sticks to the boundary

💡 Hint: Think about water sitting still against a wall.

Question 2

Turbulent flow occurs when the Reynolds number exceeds what value?

💡 Hint: Remember the critical number for flow transition!

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A flat plate in a flow has a free stream velocity of 10 m/s. If the kinematic viscosity is 1 x 10^-6 m²/s, calculate the Reynolds number at a distance of 0.5 m from the leading edge.

💡 Hint: Use the Reynolds number formula to solve.

Question 2

Discuss how the environmental factors such as viscosity and temperature may affect the boundary layer development in a given fluid system.

💡 Hint: Consider how real-world applications like cooling and heating impact flow.
