To find a solution to this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Reynolds number and its definitions on the type of fluid.
A Reynolds number less than 2000 considers the laminar fluid, while a Reynolds number greater than 4000 is considered a turbulent fluid. (The intermediate between the two values would be a transient fluid)
The mathematical equation that defines the Reynolds number is given by
Where
Density
V= Velocity
D= Diameter
Viscosity
Our values are given as
The velocity can be find through the Discharge equation,
Q = VA
Where
V = Velocity
A = Area
Replacing,
Replacing at the Reynolds equation,
Since Reynolds' number is greater than 4000, then we consider this a turbulent fluid.
