Question
thumb_up100%
Water flows through a pipe 25 mm in diameter at a velocity of 6 m/s. Determine whether
the flow will be laminar or turbulent assuming that the dynamic viscosity of water is taken as
1.30 × 10−3 kg/ms and its mass density as 1000 kg/m3
. If oil of specific gravity 0.9 and
dynamic viscosity 9.6 × 10−2 kg/ms is pumped through the same pipe, what type of flow will
occur?

- There are two liquid tanks A and B connected to each other by a tube as shown in the figure.The base of A is 75 cm2 and the base of B is 30 cm2. The density of the oil is 0.8. How many kilograms of oil must be put in tank B so that the level difference between the water in the two branches is 15 cm? Which point supports more pressure, C or C'?arrow_forwardOil of density 920 kg/m3 and dynamic viscosity 0.3 Pa-s flows in a pipe of diameter 15 cm at a velocity of 2 m/s. What would be the velocity of flow of water in a 1 cm diameter pipe, to make the two flows dynamically similar? The density and viscosity of water can be taken as a 998 kg/m3 and 1.31 x 103 Pa-s respectively.arrow_forwardProblem 4: Laminar or Turbulent?
