Volumetric strain rate is zero for a steady incompressible flow. In Cartesian coordinates we express this as ∂u/∂x + ∂?/∂y + ∂w/∂z = 0Suppose the characteristic speed and characteristic length for a given flow field are V and L, respectively. Define the following dimensionless variables, Nondimensionalize the equation, and identify any established (named) dimensionless parameters that may appear. Discuss.

Consider laminar flow through a long section of pipe, as in Fig. For laminar flow it turns out that wall roughness is not a relevant parameter unless ? is very large. The volume flow rate V· through the pipe is a function of pipe diameter D, fluid viscosity ? , and axial pressure gradient dP/dx. If pipe diameter is doubled, all else being equal, by what factor will volume flow rate increase? Use dimensional analysis.
The time t d to drain a liquid from a hole in the bottom of atank is a function of the hole diameter d , the initial fluidvolume y 0 , the initial liquid depth h 0 , and the density ρ andviscosity μ of the fluid. Rewrite this relation as a dimensionlessfunction, using Ipsen’s method.

An incompressible Newtonian liquid is confined between two concentric circular cylinders of infinite length— a solid inner cylinder of radius Ri and a hollow, stationary outer cylinder of radius Ro. The inner cylinder be stationary and the outer cylinder rotate at angular velocity ?o. Generate an exact solution for u?(r) using the step-by-step . The flow is steady, laminar, and two-dimensional in the r?-plane. The flow is also rotationally symmetric, meaning that nothing is a function of coordinate ? (u? and P are functions of radius r only). The flow is also circular, meaning that velocity component ur = 0 everywhere. Generate an exact expression for velocity component u? as a function of radius r and the other parameters in the problem. You may ignore gravity.

During World War II, Sir Geoffrey Taylor, a British fl uiddynamicist, used dimensional analysis to estimate theenergy released by an atomic bomb explosion. He assumedthat the energy released E , was a function of blast waveradius R , air density ρ, and time t . Arrange these variablesinto a single dimensionless group, which we may term theblast wave number .
