1
Key Boundary Layer Equations Normal transition from Laminar to Turbulent x Boundary layer thickness (m) at distance x down plate = Shear stress on plate at distance x down plate U 0 free stream vel. kinematic visco. Rough tip –induced turbulence
2
Shear Resistance due to flow of a viscous fluid of density and free stream vel = U o Over a plate Length L Breath B
3
Flow in Conduits --Pipes + - Head IN from pump Note pump power Head OUT from Turbine Note power recovered Q discharge 0< <1 efficiency Heat Loss Our concern is to calculate this term
4
The nature of Flow in Pipes
5
Development of flow in a pipe
7
We use energy Eq.—assume = 1 If we select the points [a] and [b] to be at the top of the tanks Eq. 1 Simplifies to (1) We can not measure H BUT we can estimate the head loss h L
8
There are a number of items that contribute to the head loss h L
9
In current problem Three components for head loss
10
In Example problem Minor Losses Note form Dimensionless No X V 2 /2g
11
See Table 10.3 in Crowe, Elger and Robinson
12
In this case reduces to Head loss in a pipe
13
=0 by continuity Rearrange (1) (2) Wetted perimeter (1) And (2)
14
Introduce a Dimensionless friction factor Then In a full circular pipe So to find head loss h L Need to find friction factor f Head loss in a pipe
