What is the effect that radius changes have on the laminar flow of a fluid?

Laminar flow is the free-flowing blood in the middle of the vessel. Therefore, larger the radius of vessel, more the laminar flow. Smaller the radius of vessel, lesss the laminar flow. Laminar flow is directly reltated to the radius of a vessel.

Which variable had the strongest effect on fluid flow?
Radius
Who invented laminar air flow?
Bernoulli was the first guy to study it some 250 years back - laminar fluid flow that is.
What is the basic assumption inherent in Darcy's law?
incompressible fluid laminar viscous flow non reactive fluid single phase
What is turbulent vs laminar flow?
An air plane wing or anything that reduces drag like an arrow,dart, or even fish. Other examples could be the fins of dolphins, blood through arteries, water in a tube. Just remember that laminar flow is flow in which the fluid flows smoothly without much resistance. The fluid pretty much travels in straight or almost straight lines.
Is flow in a Venturi tube laminar or turbulent?
In laminar flow, air resistance is proportional to velocity of the body whereas in turbulent flow, air resistance is proportional to (velocity)2.
What is a transit point?
In the field of fluid dynamics the point at which the boundary layer changes from laminar to turbulent is called the transition point.

Why is laminar flow most commonly characterized in terms of the viscosity of fluid?
Laminar flow is commonly characterized in terms of viscosity of fluid because of the nature of the phenomenon. Laminar flow typically describes how layers of fluid slide across each other without mixing. The air between the layers is the origin of the viscosity.

What are disadvantages and advantages of laminar flow?
Disadvantage: It takes energy to move the fluid. Advantage: It helps boats move since there aren't any waves.
What is the basic assumption inherent in Darcy?
incompressible fluid laminar viscous flow non reactive fluid single phase

incompressible fluid laminar viscous flow non reactive fluid single phase
What viscosity level was the fluid flow rate the highest?
The relationship between radius and fluid flow rate is inversely proportional. As radius goes down, fluid flow rate goes up. The highest fluid flow rate will be at the lowest radius.
What property does not effect the rate of dissolving?
colour is a physical property that has no effect on the rate of dissolving
Why you determine reynold number in fluid mechanics?
Reynolds number tells you what the flow is doing. A Reynolds number of 0-2000 is laminar flow 2000-4000 is the transition (where both laminar and turbulent flow is possible) 4000+ is fully turbulent flow
