A student engineer is given a summer job to find the drag force on a new unmaned aerial vehicle that travels at a cruising speed of 320 km/h in air at 15 C. The student decided to build a 1/50 scale model and test it in a water tunnel at the same temperature.

(a) What conditions are required to ensure the similarity of scale model and prototype.
(b) Find the water speed required to model the prototype.
(c) If the drag force on the model is 5 kN, determine the drag force on the prototype

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.

The higher the astm grain-size number, the coarser the grain is. a)-true b)-false

Air is compressed isentropically from an initial state of 300 k and 101 kpa to a final temperature of 1000 k. determine the final pressure using the following approaches: (a) approximate analysis (using properties at the average temperature) (b) exact analysis
