    The document describes an experiment to measure velocity profiles in a square duct. It discusses the experimental setup, which includes a square duct, fan, pressure transducers, and pitot static tube. The document outlines key concepts for the experiment, such as viscous flow, Reynolds number, and entrance length. It then presents the experimental results, including velocity profiles taken at various locations along the duct for the y-axis, z-axis, and comparison of profiles at one location.

    Experimental Results

    We Obtained The Velocity Profiles at The Locations Shown in The Figures


    Figure 4.3 shows the velocity profile for the duct channel along x-axis with
    variation of y-axis, without straws at fixed z=0 cm. For each location we
    took 5 readings of velocity, and then we took the average velocity ⊽.
    In figure 4.4, velocity profile Over y-Axis With Fixed Height z=0 cm, along x-
    Axis without straws. Normalized by dividing each velocity by the mean
    one, ⊽/Vm.
    Figure 4.5 shows the velocity profile for the duct channel along x-axis with
    variation of z-axis, without straws and fixed height y=0cm.
    For each location we took 5 readings of velocity, and then we took the
    average ⊽.
    Figure 4.6 shows the velocity profile for the duct channel along x-axis with
    variation of z-axis, without straws and fixed height y=0cm. it is normalized
    by dividing the velocity of each location by the mean velocity ⊽/Vm.
