8.. An air blower is to deliver 40,000 ft3
/min. Two U-tube gages measure suction and discharge
pressures. The suction gage reads a negative 2′′ of water. The discharge gage, located 3 ft above the
point to which the suction gage is attached, reads +3′′ of water. The discharge and suction ducts are of
equal diameter. What size motor should be used to drive the blower if the overall efficiency is 68% (γ =
0.0750 lb/ft3
for air)? indicate free body diagram
A) Determine the maximum allowable pressure, pc,maxpc,max, in the cylindrical pressure vessel.
B) Determine the maximum allowable pressure, ps,maxps,max, in the spherical pressure vessel.

Intravenous infusions usually are driven by gravity by hanging the fluid bottle at sufficient height to counteract the blood pressure in the vein and to force the fluid into the body (fig. below). The higher the bottle is raised, the higher the flow rate of the fluid will be.
An 8 ft diameter by 16 ft height vertical tank is receiving water (? = 62.5 lb/ft3) at the rate of 295 gal/min and discharging through a 4-in ID line with a constant speed of 6 fps. At a given instant, the tank is half full.
QUESTION #1:
the mass change in the tank (sample answer: 20,287.65 lb.
round off to 2 decimal place
QUESTION #2:
the water level in the tank 15 min. later (sample answer: 20,287.65 ft
round off to 2 decimal place
QUESTION #3:
the volume change in the tank (sample answer: 20,287.65 cu ft
round off to 2 decimal place
