Which of the following fluid flow can form “eddies”?(a) Streamline flow(b) Laminar flow(c) Turbulent flow(d) Non-turbulent flowI have been asked this question in an interview for job.Question is taken from Fluids in Motion topic in portion Fluid Flow and Mixing of Bioprocess Engineering

Answer»

The correct OPTION is (c) Turbulent flow

Best explanation: The slower the flow the more closely the streamlines represent actual MOTION. SLOW FLUID flow is therefore called streamline or laminar flow. In fast motion, fluid particles frequently cross and recross the streamlines. This motion is called turbulent flow and is characterized by FORMATION of eddies.
