) A 50 mm-diameter propeller was installed in a 150 mm-diameter water pipe and the propeller speed was measured for a range of water discharge in the pipe. The water had a density and dynamic viscosity of 1000 kg/m3 and 0.00112 Ns/m2 respectively. The measured results were as follows: Q (litres/s): 12 28 45 63 95 120 160 180 N (rps): 5 10 15 20 30 40 60 80 Plot the dependence of propeller coefficient against propeller Reynolds number. A...
