5.13 The torque due to the frictional resistance of the oil film between a rotating shaft and its bearing is found to be dependent on the force F normal to the shaft, the speed of rotation N of the shaft, the dynamic viscosity of the oil, and the shaft diameter D. Establish a correlation among these variables by using dimensional analysis.
A dimensionless combination of variables that is important in the study of viscous flow through pipes is called the Reynolds number, Re, defined as ???/? where, as indicated in Fig. 11, ? is the fluid density, V the mean fluid velocity, D the pipe diameter, and the fluid viscosity. A Newtonian fluid having a viscosity of 0.38 ? . ?/?² and a specific gravity of 0.91 flows through a 25‐mmdiameter pipe with a velocity of 2.6 ?/?. Determine the value of the Reynolds number using (a) SI units, and (b) BG units.
The Ekman number, Ek, arises in geophysical fluiddynamics.

In the following section, at least 2 to up to 5 answers may be correct. 1) For a fluid, the assumption (simplifying notion) of incompressibility has important consequences: Pascal’s principle: a change of pressure in an enclosed fluid at rest is transmitted undiminished to all points in the fluid. pressure changes are transmitted immediately from one place to another. the speed of sound then is infinite (just within this approximation). pressure becomes unpredictable. none of the above. 2) Archimedes’ principle can be summarized as: an immersed object is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces. a bathtub is fun, and may lead to important physical discoveries regarding the volume of an object and how much water it displaces, and the weight of that amount of water. boats swim because of the work done by sailors. submarines are always doomed. fish swim because they are less heavy than water 3) A…
For most gases at standard or near standard conditions, the relationshipamong pressure, density, and temperature is given by the perfect gasequation of state: p = ρRT, where R is the specific gas constant. For airat near standard conditions, R = 287 J/(kg · K) in the International System of Units and R = 1716 ft · lb/(slug · ◦R) in the English Engineering System of Units. Using the above information, consider the following two cases: a. At a given point on the wing of a Boeing 727, the pressure andtemperature of the air are 1.9 × 104 N/m2 and 203 K, respectively.Calculate the density at this point.b. At a point in the test section of a supersonic wind tunnel, the pressureand density of the air are 1058 lb/ft2 and 1.23 × 10−3 slug/ft3,respectively. Calculate the temperature at this point.

When fluid in a pipe is accelerated linearly from rest, it begins as laminar flow andthen undergoes transition to turbulence at a time ttr which depends upon the pipe diameter D,fluid acceleration a, density ρ, and viscosity µ. Arrange this into a dimensionless relationbetween ttr and D. (Fluid Mechanics)
