2) Activity 3: Skill-building Activities (with answer key) (18 mins +2 mins checking)
Problem 1. A fluid having a kinematic viscosity v = 0.00004 m²/s flows in a 800m long pipe having a
diameter of 30mm and a mean velocity of V = 2m/s. What is the characteristic of flow?
Given: v = 0.00004 m2/s
D = 0.030m
V = 2m/s
Solution:
Solving Reynolds number:
VD
Re =
v
Substituting values;
2m/s( 0.030m)
0.00004m2 /s
Therefore: The flow is laminar (answer)
Re =
= 1,500< 2000
