Ch 11 Flashcards
1
Q
Flow of fluid over parallel layers in a smooth manner with definite paths. No mixing. Silent.
A
Laminar Flow
2
Q
Random movement of fluid on irregular paths with no pattern. Very loud.
A
Turbulent Flow
3
Q
Measures the resistance of fluid to deforming due to shear force. Internal friction of a fluid which makes it resist flowing past a solid surface.
A
Viscosity
4
Q
As the temperature of fluids increase, the viscosity of fluid decreases.
A
Yep
5
Q
An incompressible fluid that has no viscosity.
A
Ideal Fluid
6
Q
Dimensionless number comprised of the physical characteristics of a flow.
2000 laminar
3500 turbulent
Anything in between is transitional flow
A
Reynolds Number
