The air velocity in the duct of a heating system is to be measured by a Pitot-static probe inserted into the duct parallel to the flow. If the differential height between the water columns connected to the two outlets of the probe is 2.4 cm, determine (a) the flow velocity and (b) the pressure rise at the tip of the probe. The air temperature and pressure in the duct are 45°C and 98 kPa, respectively.
A gas flows through a square conduit. At one point along the conduit sides are 0.100m. the velocity is 7.55m/s, and the gas’s mass density is (for its particular pressure and temperature) 1.09kg/m3. At a second point, the conduit sides are 0.250m and the velocity is 2.02m/s. After finding the mass flow rate of the gas, what is the gas’s mass density (ρ) at the second point in kilogram per cubic-meter
