Difficuilt and/or interesting problems in fluid mechanics

Click For Summary
The discussion focuses on seeking challenging fluid mechanics problems, specifically related to hydrostatic pressure, buoyancy forces, and Bernoulli's equation for liquids. The original poster expresses difficulty finding suitable problems, as the ones encountered are too easy. Suggestions include exploring past university exams and utilizing resources like Schaum’s Outlines for problem sets. Additionally, the Navier-Stokes equations are mentioned as a complex topic, though it is noted that solutions for these may be extensive. The conversation emphasizes the need for problems that are both difficult and manageable in length.

Homework Statement



Can anyone please give me hard and interesting problems regarding fluid mechanics problems such as hydrostatic and air prssure bouyance force and Bernoullis equation(Bernoullis equation problems only for liquids)? I tried looking for them but the ones I found were quite easy. I would prefer if you gave me many problems. Please add a solution. Thank you.

Welcome to the PF. :smile:

Can you post a few links to some of the places you've found so far? Have you been able to look through past exams at some university classes? I would think you might be able to find something like that with the right Google search terms maybe... :smile:

Why not investigate analytic solutions to the general Navier-Stokes equation? There's a million dollar prize for the first person to find a solution.

I know you probably are humourous here but I guess he seeks for (hard) problems that have solutions a few pages (maybe up to 5 pages) long at most, not for a subject/theme for a PhD thesis that is possible up to 100pages or more.
