Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Suppose you need to design an experiment for a new fluid flowing through a pipe. The fluid's density, viscosity, and diameter need to be examined along with the pressure drop. How would you apply dimensional analysis to optimize your experimental setup?

💡 Hint: Consider the dimensions each variable represents.

Question 2

Explain how different systems of units (SI vs. CGS) might influence the application of dimensionless groups in a hydraulic engineering context.

💡 Hint: How do dimensional groups help in bridging unit differences?
