- Next time you are putting gasoline in your car, determine the volumetric flow rate of the gasoline at the pumping station. Record the time that it takes to pump a known volume of gasoline into your car’s gas tank. The flow meter at the pump will give you the volume in liters, so all you have to do is to measure the time. Investigate the size of the storage tanks in your neighbourhood gas station. Estimate how often the storage tank needs to be refilled. State your assumptions.arrow_forwardWhat is the area of a rectangular air supply opening measuring 12x10?arrow_forwardBASED ON ASHRAE STANDARD 62.2, CALCULATE THE FRESH AIR INTAKE TO THE AIR HANDLING UNIT (AHU) THAT SERVES LECTURE HALL THAT CAN ACCOMMODATE 150 STUDENTS, DIMENSIONING 30M X 65M X 3M (H).arrow_forward

- A centrifugal pump as shown in Figure below has a 100 mm diameter suction pipe and a 75 mm diameter delivery pipe. When discharging 15 L/s of water, the inlet water mercury manometer with one side exposed to the atmosphere recorded a vacuum deflection of 198 mm of Hg; the mercury level on the suction side was 100 mm below the pipe centerline. The delivery pressure gauge, 200 mm above the pump inlet, recorded a pressure of 94.666 Kpa. The measured input power was 3.2 kW. Calculate the pressure at the suction.arrow_forwardA centrifugal pump as shown in Figure below has a 100 mm diameter suction pipe and a 75 mm diameter delivery pipe.
