D: VISUALISATION OF FLOWS

PART 1
To observe the potential flows between the different bodies.

APPARATUS


OBSERVATIONS
For square:

For cylinder:
Qualitative analysis of circular cylinder :
Q = 1000 L/hour

1. Flow rate (Q) = 277.78 ml/second

2. Width (w) = 60.6 cm

3. Depth (d) = 0.2 cm

4. Diameter (cylinder) = 6.1 cm

U∞ = Q/(wd)

U∞ = 22.919 cm/sec

Calculation of :

U∞ = / y

= U∞ * y

= 22.919*2 cm^2/sec

= 45.838 cm^2/sec

Theoretical streamline image:

Practically observed streamlines:


Image processed as binary image with black stream lines.
PART II:
To find the relation between Reynold’s number and Strouhal’s
number.
