(choose chapter or problem)

An important design consideration in two-phase pipeflow of solid-liquid mixtures is the terminal settling velocitybelow, which the flow becomes unstable and eventually thepipe becomes clogged. On the basis of extended transportationtests, the terminal settling velocity of a solid particle in the restwater given by VL 5 FL "2gD1S 2 12, where FL is an experimentalcoefficient, g the gravitational acceleration, D the pipediameter, and S the specific gravity of solid particle. What is thedimension of FL? Is this equation dimensionally homogeneous?
