Chapter 1, Problem 1.22P

The flow rate f in m 3 / s of water through a particular pipe, as a function of the pressure drop p across the ends of the pipe in N/m 2 is given by f = 0.002 p . Obtain a linear model of f as a function of p that always underestimates the flow rate over the range 0 p 900 .

Using Newton's second law, the movement of a body in a viscous fluid can be modeled. For this case it will be a one-dimensional movement.    ec.1) F -FR = ma F: Force applied to the body. FR: Resistance that opposes the fluid to the movement. m: body mass a: body acceleration For a sphere with initial radius R0 = 1 meter and density 8960 kg/m^3 to which a constant force of 3 Kilo Newtons is applied, it is requested: Using Euler's method, find the velocity as a function of time for the first 5 seconds of movement, considering that v(0) = 10 m/s. Use a 1 second step. For this case use:  ec.2) FR = 210Rv R: Radius of the sphere. v: velocity Where, in addition, the sphere disintegrates as time passes in this fluid, so its radius is given by the following function: ec.3) R = R0*e^(-t/250)
A boundary layer is a thin region (usually along a wall)in which viscous forces are significant and within which the flow is rotational. Consider a boundary layer growing along a thin flat plate. The flow is steady. The boundary layer thickness  d (m) at any downstream distance x is a function of x (m), free-stream velocity V(m/s)`, fluid properties fluid density r (kg/m3), fluid viscosity µ (kg/m.s), sound velocity c (m/s) and surface roughness ɛ (m). i-Use the method of repeating variables to generate a dimensionless relationship between boundary layer thickness  d (m) and other parameters. Show all your work in detail. ii-calculate the boundary layer thickness d (m)  value for x=16,2 m, free-stream velocity V=262 (m/s), fluid properties fluid density r=1.162 (kg/m3), fluid viscosity µ=1.862 x10-5 (kg/m.s), sound velocity c=345 (m/s) and surface roughness ɛ=0.015m (m). What should the velocity of wind tunnel test the similar in wind tunnel at the same temperature and pressure for…
The volume flow Q over a certain dam is a function of damwidth b , gravity g , and the upstream water depth H abovethe dam crest. It is known that Q is proportional to b . If b=120 ft and H =15 in., the flow rate is 600 ft 3 /s. What willbe the flow rate if H = 3 ft?
