the following non can dimensional parameters be derived by Dimensional Analysis







 

333. A river model is constructed to a horizontal scale of 1:1000 and a vertical

scale of 1:100. If the model discharge were 0.1 m³/s, then the discharge in the

river (in m³/s) would b 10





 

334. If δ1 and δ2 denote the boundary layer thicknesses at a point distance x from the leading edge on a flat plate when the Reynolds numbers are 100 and 256

respectively, then the ratio of δ1 to δ2 will be 1.6


 

335. The lift formula is given by Lift = ρV Γ, where ρ is the density of the fluid, V, the free stream velocity and Γ, the circulation. Given the following conditions
