Question
The density of a particular fluid is given by the following equation:
where rho = 64e^((7.9x10^-7)P) where rho is density in units [lbm/ft^3] and P is pressure in units [lbf/in^2, or “psi – pounds per square
inch”].
a. What are the units of 64 and 7.9x10^-7?
b. For a pressure of 8.5x10^6 N/m^2, what is the density in units [kg/liter]? You may or may not find it more logical to do part c before part b.
c. Rewrite this formula for [kg/liter] as a function of P [N/m^2]. Plug in your answers from part b to check your answer.

- given the enthalpy, H, is a natural function of entropy and pressure, write the expression fot he total differential of enthalpyarrow_forward1. FA Newtonian fluid is flowing between two large parallel plates in the z direction. The top plate is moving in the positive z direction at a constant velocity Vo. The bottom plate is stationary. The velocity profile this flow is given by V(y) = V₁ (a) (b) (77) where 2H is the distance between the two plates. y is the vertical coordinate from the center plane, and is the velocity profile as a function of y. Draw a schematic of the flow system with the appropriate coordinate system. For plates with a total width W in the x-direction and length L in the z-direction, derive an expression for the volumetric flow rate Q through the plates.arrow_forward
