Fluid Mechanics Laboratory 2 Report Robby Joseph 14103508 1.0 Introduction This experiment was undertaken for the study of flow in pipes and the factors that affect it in both laminar and turbulent regimes. The transitional regime between laminar and turbulent flow will also be studied. The experiment was done using a pipe with a known diameter‚ and water was pumped in from a tank. Throughout the process‚ measurements of the quantity of water and time were taken as well as the hydraulic gradient

Experiment 1 Fluid Flow In A Smooth Pipe Abstract In this experiment‚ three variable flow meters are used to alter the flowrate. Changes in pressure drop due to the change in flowrate are then observed from the three pressure gauges that can measure pressure at different range and recorded. The shift from laminar flow to turbulent flow is seen from the results recorded‚ but it is observed more clearly from the water-soluble dye experiment that was carried out by the demonstrator. Laminar flow

MAE130B Concept/Question/Comments Film: Channel Flow of a Compressible Fluid Due Date: March 15‚ 2013 Concept 1: Choking Choking occurs when the Mach number at the throat of a channel flow is equal to one. Conceptually choking is the phenomena where the flow in a channel transitions to sonic flow. Due to the conditions of choking‚ the velocity‚ density‚ and pressure can increase or decrease continuously through a sonic throat‚ and the flow does not need to be symmetrical. Another notable phenomena

Midterm Exam II Solution‚ ME 342 Fluid Mechanics (Spring 2013) 1. Consider a steady‚ incompressible‚ y=+h b viscous flow of viscosity due to y a pressure gradient x inside a channel of two fixed u=u(y) plates at a distance of 2h‚ as shown in the figure. Neglect a gravity effect. The channel width y=h b is W and it is very long compared to the channel length L (i.e.‚ W>>L) so that it is still valid to assume that the channel flow is a two-dimensional plane flow ( ) and an axial flow (v = w = 0)
