The volume flow Q through an orifice plate is a function ofpipe diameter D , pressure drop D p across the orifice, fluiddensity ρ and viscosity μ , and orifice diameter d . Using D ,ρ , and ∆ p as r e peating variables, express this relationshipin dimensionless form.
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’.
