Question
I am given a problem about a booster fan in a circular duct with a diameter of 30cm. The work done on the system by the fan is 80 W, causing an increase of pressure on the outlet side of the fan of 70 Pa. All other work and energy is negligible. How do I find the maximum velocity of the air in the duct?

- Answer the following questions about air flowing through a nozzle as shown in the schematic below. The air enters the nozzle at 2.2 kg/m³ and 34 m/s and leaves at 0.72 kg/m³ and 130 m/s. The nozzle inlet area is 60 cm². The mass flow rate is 4.5 kg/s. The outlet cross-sectional area is 1 cm². P1 Nozzle V₂ P2arrow_forwardConsider a wind turbine that is situated in an area that has steady winds. The turbine rotates at 16 RPM. The mass flow rate through the turbine is 41,025 kg/s. The tip velocity is 260 km/hr. Take the air density to be 1.31 kg/m² and assume 180kW of electric power is generated by the turbine. Determine the following: a. Average velocity of the air b. The efficiency of the turbine c. Assuming winds are steady for 95% of the year, is this a suitable location for a wind turbine? Explain.arrow_forwardA t-joint is another common piping component, typically used to combine or separate flows of fluid. This t-joint has two inlets and one outlet. We want to find the flow rate through the outlet and the force to hold the t-joint in place. The working fluid is water. One inlet, open to the left, is 6 cm diameter and receives water at a velocity of 4 ms ¹. The other inlet, open to the right, has a volume flow rate of 1 Ls¹ and a diameter of 4 cm. If the outlet has a diameter of 12 cm and faces upwards with regard to gravity, determine: (a) the velocity through the second inlet. [0.80 m s-¹] (b) the velocity through the outlet. [1.09 m s-¹] (c) the reaction forces (x, y directions) to hold the t-joint in place [x: -181.7 N, y: 1156 N] Losses due to viscosity are assumed negligible. The outlet discharges to atmosphere. The weight of the t-joint and the fluid within it are negligible.arrow_forward
