Dept: CIVIL
Answer ALL questions:

1. Explain Rayleighs method

2. Give the dimensions of the following physical quantities.
a) Pressure
b) Surface tension
c) Dynamic viscosity d) Kinematic viscosity
3. List the advantages of dimensional analysis.
4. Define Froude number
5. What is meant by undistorted model?
PART B

Answer ALL questions:

1. (i) The frictional torque T of a disc of diameter D rotating at a speed N

in a fluid of viscosity and density in a turbulent flow is
given by
