  1. What is the difference between wake and recirculation region?

    Feb 13, 2016 · If we place a obstacle in the fluid flow, fluid will be circulating behind the obstacle. What is this called? This might be a wake or recirculation region. What is the difference?

  2. How to calculate the time to heat up a tank using recirculating liquid ...

    Jan 17, 2019 · My question is about a tank filled with some liquid (properties of the liquid are known and can be considered constant. Specific heat equals 1.5 kJ/(kg.K)). The initial temperature of the liquid in...

  3. fluid mechanics - Engineering Stack Exchange

    I couldnt find a centrifugal blower to fit the 18psig as per my requirement. I was thinking of improvising, using a Garrett automotive turbocharger, driving it via a gearbox/belt through a motor. Would that be …

  4. Mass balance of a recycle stream - Engineering Stack Exchange

    I'm a chemical engineer student and I have just started to learn about mass balance without reaction. This is my problem - I want to find Out the mass composition and mass flowrate of stream Y (...

  5. Sutherland's law for other gasses - Engineering Stack Exchange

    Sep 21, 2020 · Sutherland's Law seems to be a fairly well-accepted relationship between dynamic viscosity and temperature and was originally created to work for ideal gases, though it is often …

  6. chemical engineering - Calculation of residence time in a continuous ...

    Jul 21, 2024 · Residence time tells us about the time reactants spend in a reactor. In a CSTR, spacetime is given by consumption upon consumption rate at the exit. Why do we take the rate at the exit only …

  7. What is the meaning of vorticity and circulation?

    Jul 23, 2016 · In fluid kinematics I can't understand the meaning of these terms : vorticity and circulation. Can somebody give me a description of these terms so that a lay person can understand them easily?
