Worked Examples
Fully solved problems from the PC316 lecture notes, each tied back to the concepts it exercises.
| Example | Exercises | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Couette flow | Navier–Stokes, no-slip | Easy |
| Hagen–Poiseuille flow | Navier–Stokes in a pipe | Medium |
| Two-layer flow on an incline | viscous matching conditions | Hard |
| Necking of a falling stream | continuity + Bernoulli | Easy |
| Trinity blast wave (Sedov–Taylor) | dimensional analysis, strong shocks | Hard |
More short examples live inside concept pages — e.g. Superman's straw, the iceberg, the Venturi meter, the tank-discharge optimum, and the boiling-egg scaling.
