The discussion revolves around the Krotov problem, specifically focusing on the application of energy conservation principles in fluid dynamics. Participants are examining the relevance of certain parameters, such as the radius derived from the cross-sectional area of the fluid.
The discussion is ongoing, with some participants seeking clarification on the relevance of the radius and others pointing out potential errors in the initial calculations. There is an emphasis on the need for participants to share their working to facilitate better understanding.
There is a mention of forum rules requiring participants to post their working, which suggests that the problem may involve specific constraints or assumptions that need to be made explicit for effective discussion.
S is the cross sectional area, so ##S=\pi r^2##. But if you are asking why bother calculating the radius (you don't even have to assume it is a circular cross section) then I agree.Lnewqban said:
