II Internal examination Date : 05-12-2022 Sub. Code : CE3301 Max. Marks : 50 Marks Sub. Name : Fluid mechanics Duration : 1.5 Hours Department : Civil Year : II Year PART - A (5 X 2 = 10 marks) 1. Define Reynold's number. 2. What is meant by Froude number? 3. Classify the methods of dimensional analysis. 4. State the Buckingham‟s pi-theorem. 5. Distinguish between Geometric similarity and Kinematic similarity PART - B (40 marks) 6. What is a distorted model? How it differs from an undistorted model. 7. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of distorted models. 8. A spillway model built upto a scale of 1/10 is discharging water with a velocity of 1m/s, under a head of 100 mm. Estimate the velocity of water of the prototype, if the head of water over the prototype is 5.5m. 9. By dimensional analysis, Show that the power P developed by a hydraulic turbine is given by P = ρN3D5f [N2 D2/ gH] where ρ - mass density of liquid, N - rotational speed, D – diameter of runner, H working head and g acceleration due to gravity
