Lab Report Fluid (Exp 1)

This document reports on an experiment to determine the discharge coefficient by investigating laminar, transitional and turbulent flow using Bernoulli's theorem. The results include flow rate and Reynolds number data in a table. Sample calculations are shown for flow rate and Reynolds number. The discussion section compares the results to theoretical laminar, transitional and turbulent flow and notes sources of experimental error.

2.0 Sample Calculation

i. Flowrate
Find the flowrate by using the formula below according to respective experiment data and
convert them from L/s to m3/s. By referring to the sample calculation, the rest of the data was
calculated with the same method.

Volume of collected water (L)


Flowrate (m3/s)=
Time to collect the water (s)

Flowrate (m3/s) = ( Flowrate [L/s ]) ( 1m3 )


1000L

Sample calculation (data 1 from experiment 1 laminar flow on the 1 “attempt)

0.1 (L) = 0.005 L/s


20(s)

(0.005 L/s) ( 1m3 ) = 5 x 10-6 m3/s


1000L

ii. Reynolds Number

The Reynolds number is widely used dimensionless parameters in fluid mechanics.

Reynolds number formula : R=UL


V

R=Reynolds number
U=Fluid velocity,(m/s)
L=Characteristic length or diameter (m)
V=Kinematic viscosity (m2/s)

3.0 Discussion

Tips on the Discussion Section

1. Explain your results in terms of theoretical issues.

2. Relate results to your experimental objective(s).


This experiment was carr out to investigate the characteristic of the flow of the liquid in the
part which is also use to determine the Reynolds number.
3. Compare expected results with those obtained (laboratory manual and experimental
data).

Laboratory manual Experimental data

Laminar < 2100 464.72

2100 < Transition < 4000 2513.63

Turbulent > 4000 5637.08

4. Analyse experimental error along with the strengths and limitations of the
experiment’s design.
