Question:

Drag tests show that the drag of a square plate placed normal to the free-stream velocity is a function of the velocity V, the density ρ, the plate dimensions B, the viscosity μ, the free-stream turbulence root mean square velocity urms, and the turbulence length scale Lx. Here urms and Lx are in ft/s and ft, respectively. By dimensional analysis, develop the π-groups that could be used to correlate the experimental results. Express your answer in the functional form.
