The flow rate of a hydraulic fluid with a Sg of 1.08 through a 2-in. I.D. orifice is 50 gal/min. If the pressure drop across the orifice is 5 lbf/in.", what is the discharge coefficient?
On a circular conduit there are different diameters: diameter D1 = 2 m, changes into D2 = 3 m. The velocity in the entrance profile was measured: v1 = 3 m/s. Calculate the discharge and mean velocity at the outlet profile (see figure below). Determine also type of flow in both conduit profiles (whether the flow is laminar or turbulent) – temperature of water T = 12° C. (use Reynold’s number Re), For laminar flow: Re<2320, For turbulent flow Re>2320, Kinematic viscosity of water of 12°C, v is equal to 1,24 10^-6 m2/s.
