Question: 1. Using dimensionless analysis, arrange the following variables into several dimensionless groups:
Pipe diameter D, ft
Fluid velocity v, ft/s
Pipe length L, ft
Fluid viscosity m, lbm/s ft
Fluid density r, lbm/ft3
Show by dimensional analysis how these groups are related to pressure drop in lbf/in2.
2. Using D (diameter), p (density), and g (acceleration of gravity) as Q's, form a dimensionless group using as the additional variable p (viscosity). Use the MLt system and solve the equations (do not do by inspection)
