Five sewer pipes, each a 2-m-diameter clay tile piperunning half full on a slope of 0.25°, empty into a singleasphalt pipe, also laid out at 0.25°. If the large pipe is alsoto run half full, what should be its diameter?
Given a straight channel with a rectangular cross section, width = 200 μm, height = 120 µm, if the volumetric flow rate is 0.1 mL/min, and dynamic viscosity of the water is 1 CP. would it be a laminar flow? Under the same pressure gradient (), if we change to a circular cross section, what would be the diameter of the channel if we would like to maintain the same volumetric flow rate?
A 4-ft-diameter finished-concrete sewer pipe is half full ofwater. (a) In the spirit of Fig. estimate the speed ofpropagation of a small-amplitude wave propagating alongthe channel. (b) If the water is flowing at 14,000 gal/min,calculate the Froude number.
