Problem 2

Problem

On your finest mesh (100x20), rerun the FLUENT calculation for Reynolds numbers 200 and 500 using the "second-order upwind" scheme. Note: change the Reynolds number by adjusting the molecular viscosity µ. Plot the centerline velocity and skin friction as a function of axial distance for Re = 100 (previous problem), 200, and 500. Plot all three cases on the same graph for comparsion. Briefly explain the trend you observe as the Reynolds number increases.
