QUESTION BANK (PAR T – B)

UNIT - 1

1. Explain Buckingham PI theorem with example.

2. Define any five non dimensionless members.

3. An aircraft is to fly at a height –

C for completes dynamic similarity. What would be P & V should be used

WT F μα T (T + 7), E = γ , P = ρRT T v γ

of specific heats.

4. A 7.2m height & 15m long spillway discharges 94m3/s discharge under a head of 2.0m.

If 1:9 scale model of this spillway is to be constructed, determine model dimensions, head o ver spillway model & the model discharge. If model experience a force of 7500N.

Determine force on the prototype.
