Question 23 Glycerine at 30 °C is flowing between two large reservoirs. These reservoirs have differences in the level of 10 m and connected through a plastic pipe. This pipe is 75 m long and goes up to a height of 3 m above the upper reservoir for a distance of 25 m where its diameter is 50 cm from the "sharp-edged' entrance. The average velocity of glycerine along this distance is 62.79 m/s. After 5 m declining from the highest point of the pipe, its diameter is suddenly expanded to 100 cm before enters the "rounded' exit of the lower reservoir. a) Sketch a diagram for the problem above and list the location where losses occurred in that system, b) Calculate the "major losses' that occurred in the system, c) Calculate the "minor losses' and total head loss that occurred in the system, d) Pressure (P) at the highest point of the pipe.

A 1.0 m radius cylindrical industrial tank filled with viscous oil to a level at a height h from its base, must be drained through a tube with a radius of 0.2 m and length L, connected to its base. The speed profile of oil in the drain tube can be described by the equation below. Where v is the oil speed, vmax is a = maximum oil speed, r is the radius, and R is the tube radius. Considering this problem situation, do what is asked in the following items, justifying your answers. a) What is the volume, in liters, of oil removed from the tank after 10 seconds, if the maximum discharge speed does the oil reach 0.35 m/s? Data: π ≈ 22/7; 1 m3 = 1000 L. b) What flow regime does the system operate? Demonstrate. Data: specific mass of oil = 800 kg/m3, specific mass of water = 1000 kg/m3, oil viscosity = 0.056 Pa.s e viscosity of water = 0.001 Pa.s.
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?
Water is transported by gravity through a 10-cmdiameter 550-m-long plastic pipe with an elevation gradient of 0.01 (i.e., an elevation drop of 1 m per 100 m of pipe length). Taking ? = 1000 kg/m3 and ? = 1 × 10−6 m2/s for water, determine the flow rate of water through the pipe. If the pipe were horizontal, what would the power requirements be to maintain the same flow rate?

Read the question carefully and give me all right solutios. A 2.4 m diameter tank is initially filled with water 5.5 m above the center of a 10 cm diameter, sharp-edged hole. The surface of the water tank is open to the atmosphere, and the hole drains to the atmosphere. If you neglect the effect of the kinetic energy correction factor, calculate: a) the initial flow rate of the tank and b) the time it takes to empty the tank.c) Does the orifice loss coefficient cause a significant increase in tank drain time? yes or no, the emptying time for this case is t =
