    1.0 ABSTRACT The objectives of handling this experiment are to study the characteristics of laminar‚ turbulent and transition flows by calculating the Reynold’s number of each flow and by observing the behavior of the flow itself. Besides that‚ this experiment is in conduct in order to determine the range for laminar and turbulent flow as well as to prove that Reynold’s number is dimensionless by calculating by using the formula. The experiment was started with laminar flow. In order to obtain the

    world needed it and the United States could supply it easily because of rich mineral soil. In the beginning of the 1930’s it was dry but most farmers made a wheat crop. In 1931 everyone started farming wheat. The wheat crop forced the price down from sixty-eight cents/ bushels in July 1930 to twenty-five cents/ bushels July 1931. Many farmers went broke and others abandoned their fields. As the storms approached the farmers were getting ready. Farmers increased their milking cowherds. The cream from

    Pressure drag is a resistive force caused by turbulent airflow behind the sphere in the wake area (explained later)‚ which is only experienced once golf ball reaches a certain speed as to create turbulence in the system. When a ball moves slowly it experiences laminar airflow and no pressure drag since the pressure distribution is symmetric – the pressure in front and behind the ball is the same. As the ball speeds up the ball eventually experiences turbulent airflow which breaks the symmetry of pressure

    derive the Reynolds Number. The effect of changing weight‚ shape‚ and radius of the objects (balloons) were tested independently such that it would be clear under what criteria either laminar or turbulent air flow is prevalent. • Introduction The difference between two models‚ laminar and turbulent‚ of air resistance may seem trivial the difference is can be seen everyday. Imagine the smoke rising from a small fire or a cigarette‚ at first the smoke will travel straight up in a linear manner
