Answer:
Re=2094,76
Explanation:
For a fluid that circulates inside a straight circular pipe, the Reynolds number is given by:
where (using the international measurement system):
- ρ: density of the fluid [kg/m3]
- v: velocity of the fluid [m/s]
- D: diameter of the pipe through which the fluid circulates [m]
- μ: dynamic viscosity [Pa.s]
To solve the probelm, we just need to replace our data using <u>THE CORRECT UNITS</u> in the Reynolds number equation. So we have:
ρ=1051 kg/m3,
v=34,3 cm/s=0,343 m/s
D=2,15 cm = 0,0215 m
μ = 3,7 cp * 10^-3 Pa.s/1 cp = 3,7*10^-3 Pa.s
Replacing in the main equation:
So the Reynolds number is 2094,76 (note that the Reynolds number is a dimensionless quantity).
