Chapter 10, Problem 10.1P
To determine
Mass flow rate
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 10.1P
Mass flow rate
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Air flow through a pipe
Velocity profile:
p = 1 bar abs = 100,000 N/m2abs
T = 5oC = 278 K
d1 = 2*r1 = 5 cm
Concept Used:
This for steady, incompressible, axis-symmetric flow becomes:
Mass flow rate through a pipe:
Calculation:
As per the given problem
For a perfect gas, the density obtained by the relation:
We know that, Mass flow rate through pipe:
Putting the value of density to calculate mass flow rate:
