It is desired to meter methanol at 20°C flowing through a 5-inch-diameter pipe. The expected flow rate is about 300 gal/min. Two flowmeters are available: a venturi nozzle and a thin-plate orifice, each with d = 2 in. The differential pressure gauge on hand is most accurate at about 12-15 Ibs/in? . Which meter is better for this job?

SOLVE CAREFULLY!! Please Write Clearly and Box the final Answer ( Show all steps ) Question : A good curve-fit to the head vs. flow for the 32-inch pump in the image shown below is: H(inft)≈500−(2.9E−7)Q2, Q in gal/min Assume the same rotation rate, 1170 r/min, and estimate the flow rate this pump will provide to deliver water from a reservoir, through 900 ft of 12-inch pipe, to a point 150 ft above the reservoir surface. Assume a friction factor f = 0.019. What is the pump efficiency at this operating point??? HINT : 150 ft above the reservoir surface.
What is the Reynold’s number for a flow of oil (SG = 0.80, ? = 0.00200 lb-s/ft2) in a 6-in diameter pipe at a flow rate of 10ft3/s. Is the flow laminar or turbulent? thank you!
Subject : Fluid mechanics Read the question carefully and give me right solution according to the question. Two pipes with C1 = 120, connected in series, discharge 4.75 cfs with a loss of head of 27 ft. Each pipe has a length of 1000 ft. If one pipe has a diameter of 18 inches, determine the diameter of the other pipe. Neglect minor losses. Note: Diagram not given
26. Inlet and throat diameters of a horizontal venturimeter are 270 mm and 130 mm respectively. The liquid flowing through the venturimeter is water. Pressure intensity at inlet is 19 N/cm2, while pressure at throat is 48 kPa. Find flow rate of water in lit/min, assuming Cd is 0.9 and also draw the neat sketch. i) Actual flow rate =
Air flows through a horizontal pipe at the rate of 3,000 cu ft. per sec. If the pressure is 30 lb per sq. in. (gage) where the diameter is 3 ft., what is the pressure where the diameter is 2 ft.? Ans. PB = 5,567.10 lb per sq ft or 38.66 lb per sq in.
Please help me with this problem clearly. List two sources of error in the water-filled tube and pressure gauge method of measuring head for a hydro system and how to avoid them. Using this method, a series of measurements up a hill to the source of the stream produces the following heights: 1.5m, 0.7m, 1.0m, 1.9m, 1.6m, 0.3m, and 0.8m. What is the total head for this site? If the flow rate was 0.5 m3s-1, calculate the power available in this stream?

A 152.4 mm, Schedule 40 pipe line 91.4 m long conveys 3028 l/min of cold water from a pump to a point of discharge 24.4 m higher than the pump. There are four 90° elbow in the line. Find the pumps dynamic discharge head. Use Table of Equivalent Length of Straight Pipe (see image). Please help. Thank you :)
