A clothes dryer discharges air at 1 atm and 120°F at a rate of 1.2 ft3/s when its 5-in-diameter, well-rounded vent with negligible loss is not connected to any duct. Determine the flow rate when the vent is connected to a 15-ft-long, 5-in-diameter duct made of galvanized iron, with three 90° flanged smooth bends. Take the friction factor of the duct to be 0.019, and assume the fan power input to remain constant.

Two water reservoirs A and B are connected to each other through a 40-m-long, 2-cm-diameter cast iron pipe with a sharp-edged entrance. The pipe also involves a swing check valve and a fully open gate valve. The water level in both reservoirs is the same, but reservoir A is pressurized by compressed air while reservoir B is open to the atmosphere at 95 kPa. If the initial flow rate through the pipe is 1.5 L/s, determine the absolute air pressure on top of reservoir A. Take the water temperature to be 10°C.
Oil having a density of 833 kg/m3 and a viscosity of 3.3 x 10-3Pa.s is pumped from and open tank to a pressurized tank held at 345 kPa gage.

The volume flow rate of laminar and fully developed flow in an inclined pipe of length L can be calculated using the formula of Q=[(ΔP-ρgLsinθ)πD⁴]/128μL. When this pipe is placed on the horizontal plane under the same condition, which term of the above expression should be eliminated?
1. Why we use Reynolds number instead of mean velocity as thecriteria to judge the flow state passing through the pipe? 2. Does the ReDL or the ReDU change when the diameter is changed?3. If we replace the pure water with the oil (Newtonian fluids), doesthe lower limit Reynolds number be the same? Why?
