Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A consistent relationship between pressure drop, viscosity, and flow velocity needs to be established through experimentation. Discuss how dimensional analysis can be applied here.

💡 Hint: What are the relationships between these variables when you analyze them together?

Question 2

Consider a scenario where fluid density affects both pressure drop and flow velocity. Use dimensional analysis to explain how this would necessitate more extensive experiments.

💡 Hint: Think about the implications of multiple variables.
