Air is flowing through a venture-meter whose diameter is 2.6 in at the entrance part (location 1) and 1.8 in at the throat (location 2). The gage pressure is measured to be 12.2 psia at the entrance and 11.8 psia at the throat. Neglecting frictional effects, show that the volume flow rate can be expressed as and determine the flow rate of air. Take the air density to be 0.075 lbm/ft3.

The water enters the nozzles with an absolute pressure of 500 kPa and a speed of 5 m/s, and the nozzle outlets are exposed to atmospheric pressure and have an internal diameter of 5 cm. Consider that the specific mass of water is 1,000 kg/m3. Determine the mass flow rate of water through each of the nozzles, and explain why the actual mass flow rate will be lower.

Air at 105 kPa flows upward through a 6-cm-diameter inclined duct at a rate of 65 L/s. The duct diameter is then reduced to 4 cm through a reducer.
