Water flows at an average velocity of 10 m/s through a horizontal tube of diameter 5 cm. The pressure is measured at 1 m intervals as follows: (a) Estimate the total head loss.(b) Estimate the entrance length based on the data and based on the accepted formula.(c) Estimate the wall shear stress in the fully developed region.(d) Estimate the overall friction factor based on the data. Estimate the friction factor in the fully developed region only.
Fluid flows steadily, at volume rate Q, through a large pipeand then divides into two small pipes, the larger of which has an inside diameter of 25 mm and carries three times theflow of the smaller pipe. Both small pipes have the samelength and pressure drop. If all flows are laminar, estimatethe diameter of the smaller pipe.
Benzene (u=3.95 x10-4Pa-s) at 60°C is flowing in a 24.3mm steel pipe (absolute roughness =4.6 x10-5m from moody diagram) at the rate of 20L/min. The specific weight of the benzene is 8.62 =kN/m³. Calculate the pressure difference between two points 100m apart if the pipe is horizontal.
Fluid Mechanics Laboratory Experiment No.5 Pitot Static Tube The Discussion 2 — When the pitot tube is moved vertically inside the pipeline, why does it yield different flow velocities? Explain 3 — If the pitot tube is not perfectly aligned with the current direction, it produces errors in the measurements of static pressure and total (pool) pressure, Why? Explain. 4 — When flow velocity increases, it alters the shape of the flow velocity profile. Clarify 5 — What are the advantages and disadvantages of the pitot static tube. 6 — Does altering fluid temperature influences the results obtained by pitot static tube? clarify

(ii) If there are 1000 capillary tubes, Length L, is 4 in, select a tube diameter to keep Reynold’s number below 1500 and also to keep the tube pressure drop not greater than 0.5 lbf/in2 (iii) Do the tubes selected fit nicely within the approach pipe?
