An instrument used to measure the airspeed on many early low speed airplanes during the 1910-1930 time period, was the venturi, sketched below. This simple device is mounted at a specific location on the airplane where the inlet velocity is essentially the same as the free stream velocity. With a knowledge that A1/A2 = 5 and P1 - P2 = 5000 /m². Find the airplane's velocity at sea level?

A bicycle tire is fi lled with air at an absolute pressure of169.12 kPa, and the temperature inside is 30.0 °C. Supposethe valve breaks, and the air starts to exhaust out of the tireinto the atmosphere (pa = 100 kPa absolute and Ta =20.0 °C). The valve exit is 2.00 mm in diameter and is thesmallest cross-sectional area of the entire system. Frictionallosses can be ignored here; one-dimensional isentropicflow is a reasonable assumption.

(c) Estimate the velocity at the exit plane using theincompressible Bernoulli equation. How well does thisestimate agree with the “exact” answer of part (a)? Explain.
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.
