dependent on the wall shear stress (τ) between the fluid and pipe surface. The shear stress of a flow is also dependent on whether the flow is turbulent or laminar. For turbulent flow‚ the pressure drop is dependent on the roughness of the surface‚ while in laminar flow‚ the roughness effects of the wall are negligible. This is due to the fact that in turbulent flow‚ a thin viscous layer is formed near the pipe surface which causes a loss in energy‚ while in laminar flow‚ this viscous layer is non-existent

Aerodynamics General aerodynamics Paper aircraft are a class of model plane‚ and so do not experience aerodynamic forces differently from other types of flying model. However‚ their construction material produces a number of dissimilar effects on flight performance in comparison with aircraft built from different materials. In general‚ there are four aerodynamic forces that act on the paper aircraft while it is in flight: • Thrust‚ which keeps the plane moving forward; • Aerodynamic lift
