Lecture # 40-43
Dimensional analysis and similitude
![Page 2: CE 230-Engineering Fluid Mechanics](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022072013/56812a97550346895d8e49c4/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Why dimensional analysis?
Many problems in F.M. rely on experimental data
It is impractical to perform (cost, time) experimental study for every variation from original problem
Testing large structures is impossible so a model is used but how do we make sure it represents the prototype
![Page 3: CE 230-Engineering Fluid Mechanics](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022072013/56812a97550346895d8e49c4/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Dimensional analysis helps in reducing the size of the problem
Suppose we are studying the pressure drop per unit length of pipe in a smooth long circular horizontal pipe assuming steady and incompressible flow

Pressure drop (ΔPl)is expected to depend on
Diameter, D Velocity, V Density, ρ Viscosity, μ
ΔPl = f(D,V, ρ, μ)

We should design an experimental study to understand and come up with the nature of the above relation
Since we have 5 variables lets keep 3 fixed and see the effect of the fourth on ΔPl
Say vary D

ETC
How many experiments we have to do?
Do you forecast any problem?

Buckingham PI theorem
The original variables can be replaced by a less number of non-dimensional terms (PI- terms)
no. π terms = no. Orignal v- no Basic units

Basic units
All variables can be expressed in terms of three basic unitsLength (L)Time (T)Mass (M)
![Page 10: CE 230-Engineering Fluid Mechanics](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022072013/56812a97550346895d8e49c4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Examples
Velocity , V, [L/T]
Density, ρ, [M/L3]
Viscosity, μ, [M/LT]
Pressure, P, [M/LT2]

Back to our problem
No O.V. = 5 No B.U. =3
Therefore no π-terms = 5-2
We will replace 5 variables by to two terms which is much easier to deal with.
Q: How do we develop the π-terms
![Page 12: CE 230-Engineering Fluid Mechanics](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022072013/56812a97550346895d8e49c4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Exponent method
1. List O.V.’s involvedΔpL, D, V, ρ, μ
2. Express each OV in basic unitsΔpL=[M/L2T2] D=[L] V=[L/T]
ρ= [M/L3] μ= [M/LT]
3. Determine # of π-terms 5-3 = 2
![Page 13: CE 230-Engineering Fluid Mechanics](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022072013/56812a97550346895d8e49c4/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Exponent method continued
4. Select repeating variables from OVs = No Basic units used (here 3)
excluding primary variable (ΔpL) )
D, V, ρ
5. Form the π-terms as shown below
π1 = ΔpL Da Vb ρc
π2 = μ Dd Ve ρf
![Page 14: CE 230-Engineering Fluid Mechanics](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022072013/56812a97550346895d8e49c4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Exponent method continued
6. Determine the unknown exponents using the fact that each π-term is dimensionless
For π1 = ΔpL Da Vb ρc
units of π1 =[M/L2T2] [La] [Lb/Tb] [Mc/L3c]
Exponent for M 1+c=0 c=-1Exponent for T b=-2Exponent for L a=1
![Page 15: CE 230-Engineering Fluid Mechanics](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022072013/56812a97550346895d8e49c4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Exponent method continued
Therefore the firat non-dimensional parameter is:
π1 = ΔpL D/ρ V2
Similarly we can get
π2 = μ/ρ V D
![Page 16: CE 230-Engineering Fluid Mechanics](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022072013/56812a97550346895d8e49c4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Exponent method continued
The new relation now is : refore the firat non-dimensional parameter is:
π1 = f(π2 )
ΔpL D/ρ V2 = f(μ/ρ V D)Or
ΔpL =(ρ V2 /D) g(Re)
![Page 17: CE 230-Engineering Fluid Mechanics](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022072013/56812a97550346895d8e49c4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
How do we know nature of g?
we need to vary the two variables only which is much easier than the original problem
