Chemical Engineering Year 3: Multiphase materials and processes

Question

Imagine two fluid flow situations: Firstly, a fluid of density ρF and viscosity η flows with average speed v in a cylindrical pipe of diameter D. In the second, a particle of diameter d and density ρP settles at speed U, in a stationary fluid of density ρF and viscosity η contained in a cylindrical vessel of diameter D. Explain how you would define the Reynolds number of the flows in the two situations.
