Consider an axisymmetric pipe flow simulation. The pipe is 40 mlong in axial direction and its radius is 0.2 m. The structuredmesh is used in the computational domain and it is uniformly spacedby 1000 cells in axial direction and 20 cells in radial direction.The simulation is conducted in transient and the time step size wasset to 0.001 second. After running the simulation for a long time,the flow has reached a fully developed condition. The maximum axialvelocity along the axis is found to be 15 m/s. The fluid is aliquid water where its density is 1000 kg/m3 and itsdynamic viscosity is 0.001 kg/m-s. What is the maximum Courantnumber in the domain? DO NOT USE scientific notation (5 *10^-6) or E-notation (or engineering notation, e.g.5E-6).
