Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFExplanation:
Froude number is the ratio of inertia force to gravity force.
Froude number has the following applications:
- Used in cases of river flows, open-channel flows, spillways, surface wave motion created by boats.
- It can be used for flow classification.
Additional InformationThe Froude number, Fr, is a dimensionless value that describes different flow regimes of open channel flow. The Froude number is defined as the square root of the ratio of inertia force of a flowing fluid to the gravity force
\(F_r=\sqrt{\frac{F_i}{F_g}}\)
When:
Fr = 1, critical flow
Fr > 1, supercritical flow (fast rapid flow),
Fr < 1,subcritical flow (slow / tranquil flow)
