Recirculating water tunnel / Yahaya Ahmad

The technique of dimensional analysis is used to indicate the parameter groups that may influence flow under any particular set of prevailing conditions. Model testing, based upon a systematic variation of these groups, is necessary to determine their relative importance. Once this has been establis...
