When a sphere falls freely through a homogeneous fluid, it reaches a terminal velocity at which the weight of the sphere is balanced by the buoyant force and the frictional resistance of the fluid. Make a dimensional analysis of this problem and indicate how experimental data for this problem could be correlated. Neglect compressibility effects and the influence of surface roughness.
A student attempts at home to reproduce the experiment by Joule performed in the mid-nineteenth century. In the student's experiment, a weight takes 20 minutes to fall a distance, z, under gravity whilst pulling on a wire that turns a paddle emersed in a fluid inside an uninsulated copper container (see illustration). The temperature of the fluid is monitored by an accurate thermometer emersed in the fluid. A first temperature reading is taken just before the mass begins to fall and a second temperature reading is taken just after the mass has fallen a distance, z and come to rest. Falling mass rotates paddle. Fluid Rotating paddle Copper How many of the following statements are correct: al The work performed by the falling mass goes solely to raising the internal enerav

Wind tunnel test section km/h Model FD Moving belt Drag balance The aerodynamic drag of a new Volvo FH truck is to be predicted at a speed of 85 km/h at an air temperature of 25°C (p=1.184 kg/m³, u=1.849x10-5kg/m-s). Volvo engineers build a 1/2 scale model of the FH to test in a wind tunnel. The temperature of the wind tunnel is also 25°C. The drag force is measured with a drag balance, and the moving belt is used to simulate the moving ground. Determine how fast the engineers should run the wind tunnel to achieve similarity between the model and the prototype.
The conduction heat transfer in an extended surface, known as a fin, yields the following equation for the temperature T, if the temperature distribution is assumed to be one-dimensional in x, where x is the distance from the base of the fin, as shown in figure: To Fin >X T(x) h,T Heat Loss d²T_hp (T-T) = 0 dx² ΚΑ dT dx = 0 Here, p is the perimeter of the fin, being 2R for a cylindrical fin of radius R; A is the cross-sectional area, being R2 for a cylindrical fin; k is the At x = 0: T = T₁ dT At x=L: :0 dx thermal conductivity of the material; T is the ambient fluid temperature; and h in the convective heat transfer coefficient.

The Reynolds number is a dimensionless group defined for a fluid flowing in a pipe as Re = Duplu where Dis pipe diameter, u is fluid velocity, p is fluid density, and u is fluid viscosity. When the value of the Reynolds number is less than about 2100, the flow is laminarthat is, the fluid flows in smooth streamlines. For Reynolds numbers above 2100, the flow is turbulent, characterized by a great deal of agitation. Liquid methyl ethylketone (MEK) flows through a pipe with an inner diameter of 2.067 inches at an average velocity of 0.48 ft/s. At the fluid temperature of 20°C the density of liquid MEK is 0.805 g/cm? and the viscosity is 0.43 centipoise [1 cP = 1.00 x 10-³ kg/(m-s)]. Without using a calculator, determine whether the flow is laminar or turbulent. Show your calculations.
