Prandtl and Reynold's analogies are identical for Prandtl number value of__________________?

Correct answer: C. 1

  • A. 0
  • B. 0.5
  • C. 1
  • D. 5

Explanation

Prandtl's and Reynolds' heat-transfer analogies coincide when the Prandtl number is unity, because momentum and thermal diffusivities are then equal. This corresponds to equal rates of momentum and heat diffusion.
