23
Q

24
Q
  • The __________ number is an important parameter for flows
    with a repetitive frequency (oscillating flows).
25
__________ is the theory and art of predicting prototype performance from model observations.
similitude
26
The basic and perhaps the most obvious requirement is that the model be an ______ geometric _______ of the prototype.
exact, replica
27
All linear dimensions must bear the same ratio between the model and prototype. * This is called ___________ similitude.
geometric
28
The other basic requirement in similitude is that the forces that act on corresponding masses in the prototype and model must have the same ratio throughout the entire flow field. * This is called _________ Similitude
dynamic
29
Since the forces acting on the fluid elements control the motion of those elements, it follows that _________ similarity will yield similarity of flow _________
dynamic, patterns
30
Dynamic Similitude is achieved by making the __________ of the significant dimensionless groups 𝑅𝑒, π‘€π‘Ž, 𝐢𝑝, 𝑒𝑑𝑐. for the model flow ______ (or the same) for the prototype flow
magnitude, equal
31
_________ flow and _________ flow are classified as exact solutions.
Couette, Poiseuille
32
Three cases will be discussed, each with different boundary conditions * Case 1: _______ Flow * Case 2: ____Reynolds Number Film Flow Down an Inclined Surface * Case 3: _________ Flow Between Stationary Parallel Plates
Couette, Low ,Poiseuille
33
the exact solution to Couette flow is a ______ velocity proflie
linear
34
Poiseuille flow refers to a ________ flow in a conduit, The conduit considered is a rectangular channel. * A channel is a flow passage between ____ parallel plates
laminar, two
35
Experiments have revealed that the flow in a rectangular channel will be laminar for a Reynolds number below _____
1000
36
the exact solution in Poiseuille is a _________ shape and the velocity profile is a function of y^2
parabolic
37
The central idea of the boundary layer concept is to _________ the flow near the surface of a body as a thin layer that is _________ from the surrounding flow.
idealize, distinct
