Bernoulli's Equation & Flow
GATE 2007
Easy
Consider steady laminar incompressible axi-symmetric fully developed viscous flow through a straight circular pipe of constant cross-sectional area at a Reynolds number of 5. The ratio of inertia force to viscous force on a fluid particle is
- 5
- B1/5
- C0
- D∞
Explanation
The Reynolds number is, by definition, the ratio of inertia force to viscous force, so the ratio simply equals Re=5.
