Consider steady flow of air through the diffuser portion of a wind tunnel. Along the centerline of the diffuser, the air speed decreases from uentrance to uexit as sketched. Measurements reveal that the centerline air speed decreases parabolically through the diffuser. Write an equation for centerline speed u(x), based on the parameters given here, from x = 0 to x = L.
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.

An important parameter in certain types of fluidflow problems when a free surface is present is the Froudenumber (Fr), which can be expressed in equation form.where p is the density of the fluid, v is a velocity, L is alength, and w is the specific weight of the fluid. Show thatthe Froude number is dimensionless.
Liquid flows out of a hole in the bottom of a tank as in FinConsider the case in which the hole is very small compared to the tank (d ≪ D). Experiments reveal that average jet velocity V is nearly independent of d, D, ? , or ? . In fact, for a wide range of these parameters, it turns out that V depends only on liquid surface height h and gravitational acceleration g. If the liquid surface height is doubled, all else being equal, by what factor will the average jet velocity increase?
