When small aerosol particles or microorganisms move through air or water, the Reynolds number is very small (Re << 1). Such flows are called creeping flows. The drag on an object in creeping flow is a function only of its speed V, some characteristic length scale L of the object, and fluid viscosity µ. Use dimensional analysis to generate a relationship for the drag force FD as a function of the independent variables.
At a sudden contraction in a pipe the diameter changes from D, to D2. The pressure drop, Ap, which develops across the con- traction is a function of D, and Dz, as well as the velocity, V, in the larger pipe, and the fluid density, p, and viscosity, u. Use D, V, and u as repeating variables to determine a suitable set of dimensionless parameters. Why would ti be incorrect to include the velocity in the smaller pipe a sa nadditional variable?
Use dimentional analysis to evaluate that in a problem involving shallow water waves (figure 6), both the Froude number and the Reynold's number are relevant dimensionless parameters. The wave speed, c of waves on the surface of a liquid is a function of depth h, gravitational acceleration g, fluid density, p and fluid viscosity μ. Manipulate your II's to get the parameters into the following form: Fr = c/(gh)1/2= f(Re) , where Re = pch/μ
(a) Discuses three necessary conditions for complete similarity between a model and a prototype in dimensional analysis. (b) In the design and development competition in a University, a team of students has planned to develop a prototype of submarine that would travel fully submerged at a certain speed in a fresh lake water. The team has designed a model which has one-sixth of a prototype size to test in the university wind tunnel to study the effect of various parameters.What will happen to the length of the model if the temperature of the blowing wind increases as a result of the season change in summer compared to winter?Considering the necessary assumptions discuss the reason.
Evaluate the use of dimensionless analysis using the Buckingham Pi Theorem for a given fluid flow system (D4) , where resistance tomotion ‘R’ for a sphere of diameter ‘D’ moving at constant velocity on the surface of a liquid is due to the density ‘ρ’ and the surfacewaves produced by the acceleration of gravity ‘g’. The dimensionless quantity linking these quantities is Ne= Function (Fr). To do thisyou must apply dimensional analysis to fluid flow system given in Figure 1 (P11). PICTURE IS ALSO ATTACHED

The thrust F of a Free propeller, either aircraft of marine, depends upon density ρ, the rotation rate n in r/s, the diameter D, and the forward velocity V. Viscous effects are slight and neglected here. Tests of a 25-cm-diameter model aircraft propeller, in a sea-level wind tunnel, yield the following thrust data at a velocity of 20 m/s : Rotation Rate, r/min____4800____6000____8000 Measured thrust, N____6.1____19____47 Use the dimensionless data to predict the thrust, in Newtons, of a similar 1.6-m-diameter prototype propeller when rotating at 3800 r/min and flying at 225 mi/h at 4000-m standard altitude.

A liquid of density ? and viscosity ? is pumped at volume flow rate V· through a pump of diameter D. The blades of the pump rotate at angular velocity ? . The pump supplies a pressure rise ΔP to the liquid. Using dimensional analysis, generate a dimensionless relationship for ΔP as a function of the other parameters in the problem. Identify any established nondimensional parameters that appear in your result. Hint: For consistency (and whenever possible), it is wise to choose a length, a density, and a velocity (or angular velocity) as repeating variables.
