b) Due to hydraulic shock, the pipe ruptured resulting in release of liquid ammonia into the atmosphere. Liquid ammonia immediately flashes in the surrounding at ambient temperature, Tamb = 298 K and atmospheric pressure, Patm = 101325 Nm‍². Accordingly, i) starting from first principles, and stating any assumptions made, show that the mass flow rate of liquid ammonia escaping through the ruptured pipe upon failure is given by: 2(Pf - Patm) Qm=pArCou² + (1) Ρ Where: Qm = the mass flow rate, kgs¨¹ p = the fluid density, kgm³ A₁ = the pipe rupture area, m² = Co discharge coefficient u = fluid velocity inside the pipe, ms¨¹ Pf = fluid pressure inside the pipe, Nm²² Patm atmospheric pressure, Nm²
