Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A hydraulic engineer is tasked with designing a new pipeline system. Given that the pipeline material is only 50 meters long, discuss the challenges they might face regarding fully developed laminar flow.

💡 Hint: Consider the relationship between pipe length and flow regimes.

Question 2

Calculate the Reynolds number and entrance length for a fluid flowing through a 2m diameter pipe with a flow velocity of 3 m/s and dynamic viscosity of 1 mPa·s (0.001 Pa·s).

💡 Hint: Focus on identifying the right variables for the Reynolds number calculation.
