Resumen del Recurso

Pregunta 1

Pregunta
[blank_start]Fluids[blank_end] are substances that do not permanently resist distortion and, hence, will change their shape.
Respuesta
  • Fluids

Pregunta 2

Pregunta
[blank_start]Incompressible[blank_end] fluids are those that are inappreciably affected by changes in pressure, e.g. most liquids.
Respuesta
  • Incompressible

Pregunta 3

Pregunta
[blank_start]Compressible[blank_end] fluids are those that are appreciably affected by changes in pressure, e.g. most gases.
Respuesta
  • Compressible

Pregunta 4

Pregunta
[blank_start]Fluid statics[blank_end] is the branch of momentum transfer concerned with fluids at rest.

Pregunta 5

Pregunta
[blank_start]Fluid dynamics[blank_end] is the branch of momentum transfer concerned with fluids in motion.
Respuesta
  • Fluid dynamics

Pregunta 6

Pregunta
[blank_start]Newton’s Law of Viscosity[blank_end] roughly states that there is a linear relation between shear stress and rate of shear, and that the proportionality constant is the viscosity.
Respuesta
  • Newton’s Law of Viscosity

Pregunta 7

Pregunta
[blank_start]Kinematic viscosity[blank_end] is the ratio of viscosity to density.
Respuesta
  • Kinematic viscosity

Pregunta 8

Pregunta
[blank_start]Newtonian[blank_end] fluids are those that obey Newton’s Law of Viscosity, i.e. have constant viscosities.
Respuesta
  • Newtonian

Pregunta 9

Pregunta
[blank_start]Non-Newtonian[blank_end] fluids are those having viscosities as a function of shear rate.
Respuesta
  • Non-Newtonian

Pregunta 10

Pregunta
Gases and low molecular weight liquids are generally [blank_start]Newtonian[blank_end] fluids.
Respuesta
  • Newtonian

Pregunta 11

Pregunta
[blank_start]Laminar[blank_end] flow is the type of flow at low velocities where the layers of fluid seem to slide by one another without eddies or swirls being present.
Respuesta
  • Laminar

Pregunta 12

Pregunta
[blank_start]Turbulent[blank_end] flow is the type of flow at higher velocities where eddies are present giving the fluid a fluctuating nature.
Respuesta
  • Turbulent

Pregunta 13

Pregunta
The [blank_start]Reynold’s Number[blank_end] is the ratio of the kinetic or inertial forces and viscous forces.
Respuesta
  • Reynold’s Number

Pregunta 14

Pregunta
For a straight circular pipe, values less than [blank_start]2100[blank_end] indicates laminar flow, and above [blank_start]4000[blank_end] indicates turbulent flow.
Respuesta
  • 2100
  • 4000

Pregunta 15

Pregunta
Frictional losses in the entrance region are [blank_start]larger[blank_end] than those of the same length of fully developed flow.
Respuesta
  • larger

Pregunta 16

Pregunta
[blank_start]Mach[blank_end] number is the ratio of the fluid velocity to the speed of sound or acoustic velocity.
Respuesta
  • Mach

Pregunta 17

Pregunta
For Mach number greater than 1, flow is [blank_start]supersonic[blank_end]. If equal to 1, flow is [blank_start]critical or sonic[blank_end] and the velocity equals the local speed of sound. If less than 1, flow is [blank_start]subsonic[blank_end].
Respuesta
  • supersonic

Pregunta 18

Pregunta
The ratio of heat capacities for air is typically [blank_start]1.4[blank_end].
Respuesta
  • 1.4

Pregunta 19

Pregunta
[blank_start]Venturi[blank_end] meters are often used to measure flows in large lines, such as city water systems. For ordinary industrial installations, they are relatively expensive and takes considerable amount of space. The [blank_start]orifice[blank_end] meter overcomes the disadvantages of this meter but in exchange for a much larger head or power loss.
Respuesta
  • Venturi
  • orifice

Pregunta 20

Pregunta

Pregunta
Generally, the word “[blank_start]pump[blank_end]” designates a machine or device for moving an incompressible fluid.
Respuesta
  • pump

Pregunta 22

Pregunta
These are devices for moving gas (usually air).
Respuesta
  • Fans
  • Blowers
  • Compressors
  • Pumps

Pregunta 23

Pregunta

Pregunta 31

Pregunta
Non-Newtonian fluids can be divided into two broad categories on the basis of their shear stress/shear rate behavior: • Shear stress is independent on time or duration of shear ([blank_start]time-independent[blank_end]) • Shear stress is dependent on time or duration of shear ([blank_start]time-dependent[blank_end])
Respuesta
  • time-independent
  • time-dependent

Pregunta 32

Pregunta
These are the simplest because they differ from Newtonian fluids only in that their linear relationship does not go through the origin. Examples: peat slurries, margarine, chocolate mixtures, grease, soap, grain-water suspensions, toothpaste, paper pulp, and sewage sludge

  • Bingham Plastic Fluids
  • Pseudoplastic or Shear-thinning Fluids
  • Dilatant or Shear-thickening Fluids
  • Thixotropic Fluids
  • Rheopectic Fluids

Pregunta 33

  • Dilatant or Shear-thickening Fluids

  • Rheopectic Fluids

Pregunta 34

Respuesta
  • Bingham Plastic Fluids
  • Pseudoplastic or Shear-thinning Fluids
