To establish the relationship between turbulent scales and the Reynolds number, which of these methods is used?(a) Statistical averaging(b) Dimensional analysis(c) Weighted averaging(d) Geometric algebraI had been asked this question by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.The above asked question is from Turbulence Modelling topic in chapter Turbulence Modelling of Computational Fluid Dynamics

Answer»

Correct choice is (b) Dimensional analysis

Easiest explanation: The ratio of LARGE and small scales of turbulent FLOWS can be given in terms of the Reynolds number. These relations are ESTABLISHED using dimensional analysis. Dimensional analysis is a method which compares the dimensions in both the sides of the equations to set the RELATIONSHIP.
