Problem 1. A fluid is flowing in a 20 cm diameter pipeline with a velocity of 5.50 m/sec. The pressure at the center of the pipe is 35 kPa, and the elevation of the pipe above an assume datum is 5 m. Compute the total energy flowing fluid if it is (a.) water, (b.) molasses (s = 1.20) and (c.) gas (w = 4.29 N/m3). ANSWERS MUST BE IN 3 DECIMAL PLACES ALL THE WAY.
Suppose that you are willing to determine the diameter of the water jet impinging to the sink from the kitchen tap.The tap is produced to supply three different flow rates of the low, medium, and high. For each flow rate level, waterthat comes from the tap fills the beaker with a volume of 30 mL in 10 s, 6 s, and 2 s, respectively. The outlet of the tapis 13 mm, and the distance between the tap outlet and the sink is 53 mm. Determine the diameters of the water jetimpinging on the sink at three given flow rates.
Problem 1 •Through a refinery, fuel ethanol is flowing in a pipe at a velocity of 1 m/s and a pressure of 101300 Pa. The refinery needs the ethanol to be at a pressure of 2 atm (202600 Pa) on a lower level. How far must the pipe drop in height in order to achieve this pressure? Assume the velocity does not change. (Hint: Use the Bernoulli equation. The density of ethanol is 789 kg/m3 and gravity g is 9.8 m/s2.Pay attention to units!)
Water flows through the piping junction, entering section 1 at 20 US gallons/min (1 US gal = 3.78 L). The average velocity at section 2 is 2.5 m/s. A portion of the flow is diverted through the shower head, which contains 100 holes of 1-mm diameter. Assuming uniform shower flow, estimate the exit velocity from each hole of the the shower head. Answer should be in m/s.
