Viscosity

Question

The maximum speed of flow of water through a long cylindrical pipe of diameter 2cms so that the flow remains laminar is [ given that coefficient of viscosity of water η=103pas ]

Moderate
Solution

Flow remains laminar if  Re<2000

i.e.ρvdη<2000i.e103×v×2×102103<2000i.ev<101m/sVmax=10cm/s=0.1m/s
