8.5 (Massey – Mechanics of Fluids, 5th Ed.)

A honeycomb type of flow straightener is formed


from perpendicular flat metal strips to give 25mm
square passages, 150mm long. Water of kinematic
viscosity 1,21mm2/s approaches the straightener at
1,8m/s. Neglecting the thickness of the metal and
three-dimensional flow in the corners of the
passages, calculate the displacement thickness of the
boundary layer and the velocity of the main stream
at the outlet end of the straightener. Applying
Bernoulli’s equation to the main stream, deduce the
pressure drop through the straightener.
