02. Gasoline at 20°C is pumped through a smooth 12-cm diameter pipe 10km long, at a flow rate of 75m /h (330 gal/min). The inlet is fed by a pump at an absolute pressure of 24atm. The exit is at standard atmospheric pressure and is 150m higher. Estimate the frictional head loss h, and compare it to the head of the flow V2/(2g).

pls replyy Gasoline (SG-0.7) flows down an inclined pipe whose upper and lower sections are 90 mm (section 1) and 60 mm (section 2) in diameter respectively. The pressure and velocity in section 1 are 280 kPa and 2.3 m/s respectively. If the difference in elevation between the 2 sections is 2.5m, find the pressure at point 2.

An engineer claims that the flow of SAE 30W oil, at 20 °C,through a 5-cm-diameter smooth pipe at 1 million N/h, islaminar. Do you agree? A million newtons is a lot, so thissounds like an awfully high flow rate.

A horizontal pipe of diameter 350 mm converges to a diameter of 200 mm. The pipeconveys water with a density of 1 g/cm3. The pressure at the inlet and outlet are 550kPa and270 kPa respectively. Assuming the flow is incompressible and frictionless, estimate themass flow rate through the pipeline, stating the velocity at both the inlet and outlet.
For the system-Water at 20°C flows by gravity through a smooth pipe fromone reservoir to a lower one. The elevation difference is 60 m.The pipe is 360 m long, with a diameter of 12 cm. A pump, which delivers15,000 W to the water, is used at night to refill the upper reservoir. The pipe diameter is increased from 12 cm toprovide more flow. If the resultant flow rate is 90 m3/h, estimatethe new pipe size.
Assume an inviscid, incompressible flow. Also, standard sea level density and pressure are 1.23 kg/m3 (0.002377 slug/ft3) and 1.01 × 105 N/m2 (2116 lb/ft2), respectively. Consider a venturi with a small hole drilled in the side of the throat. Thishole is connected via a tube to a closed reservoir. The purpose of theventuri is to create a vacuum in the reservoir when the venturi is placed inan airstream. (The vacuum is defined as the pressure difference below theoutside ambient pressure.) The venturi has a throat-to-inlet area ratio of0.85. Calculate the maximum vacuum obtainable in the reservoir when theventuri is placed in an airstream of 90 m/s at standard sea level conditions.
