An engineer is applying dimensional analysis to study the flow of air through this horizontal sudden contraction for the purpose of characterizing the pressure drop. The flow is being modeled as constant density and steady. What is the functional relationship of the variables that characterize this situation

Answer:

The answer is "
\Delta p = f(V1, p, V2, d, D, L)"

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached file.

Its change in temperature in pipes depends on rate heads and loss in pipes owing to pipe flow, contractual loss, etc.

The temperature change thus relies on V1 v2 p d D L.
