Applied Fluid Mechanics

A fluid is a substance that is continuously deformed by the application of shear stress. The rate of deformation of a fluid depends on its viscosity. The fluid tries to flow when it interacts with some other system.

A water pump is used to pump water from one large reservoir to another large reservoir that is at a higher elevation. The free surfaces of both reservoirs are exposed to atmospheric pressure, as sketched in Fig. The dimensions and minor loss coefficients are provided in the figure. The pump’s performance is approximated by the expression Havailable = H0 − aV.2 , where shutoff head H0 = 24.4 m of water column, coefficient a = 0.0678 m/(Lpm)2 , available pump head Havailable is in units of meters of water column, and capacity V. is in units of liters per minute (Lpm).

Equation 6.16: εT = ln(li / l0)
A local ventilation system (a hood and duct system) is used to remove air and contaminants from a pharmaceutical lab (Fig. 1). The inner diameter (ID) of the duct is 129 mm, its average roughness is 0.15 mm, and its total length is L = 24.5 m. There are three elbows along the duct, each with a minor loss coefficient of 0.21. Literature from the hood manufacturer lists the hood entry loss coefficient as 3.3 based on duct velocity. When the damper is fully open, its loss coefficient is 1.8. The minor loss coefficient through the 90° tee is 0.36. Finally, a one-way valve is installed to prevent contaminants from a second hood from flowing “backward” into the room. The minor loss coefficient of the (open) one-way valve is 6.6. The performance data of the fan fit a parabolic curve of the form Havailable = H0 - aV2, where shutoff head H0 = 60.0 mm of water column, coefficient a = 2.50 x 10-7 mm of water column per (Lpm)2 ,available head Havailable is in units of mm of water column, and…
