B1 a Show that the resistance to motion of a ship through water is given by [13] CF f(R, Fr) where the three dimensionless groups (the Force Coefficient, Reynolds number and Froude number)are given by LI /Lg pu'L were F is the resistance force, u is the speed of the ship, L is the length of the ship, ρ is the density of water, is the dynamic viscosity of water and g is the acceleration due to gravity b)For a...
Recall that the Reynolds number is a dimensionless number that we use to discuss the flow charecteristics of moving fluids. Generally speaking it is the ratio of momentum forces to viscous forces, and it depends on the diameter of the pipe, the density of the fluid, the velocity of the moving fluid, and the viscosity of the moving fluid. It is normally given by Re Where Re - Reynolds number [dimensionless) p- fuid density v- fud velocity D- pipe diameter...
