Question
Chapter 11, Problem 1P
To determine
Critical transition distance.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The free stream velocity of the oil
The temperature of the oil
Calculation:
Consider the flow is steady and the kerosene is incompressible.
Refer Appendix A, “Physical Properties of Liquids at Standard Atmospheric Pressure 14.70 psi, and 68°F (FPS Units)”
The transition from a laminar boundary layer takes place at a critical Reynolds number
The density of the kerosene
The kinematic viscosity
Write the Expression for the Reynolds numbers
Thus, the critical distance for transition is
