For the following system, calculate the flow rate from the nozzle. Give the result Q in m3/s
A fan is used to extract 140m3 air per minute from a large room. A circular duct of diameter 0.53 m connects the fan to the room, and the air is exhausted from the fan into the atmosphere through a conical diffuser that increases in diameter from 0.53 m to 0.8 m. A manometer shows that the pressure in the room is sub-atmospheric and the water height differential across the manometer is 6 mm. Neglecting losses, calculate:a. The static and stagnation pressures upstream of the fanb. The static and stagnation pressures downstream of the fanc. The power supplied by the fan to the air[Hint: define the following stations: 1. The room, 2. Immediately upstream of fan, 3. Immediately downstream of fan, 4. The atmosphere]
Problem 4A partly full water tank admits water at 85 N/s weight flow while ejecting water on the other side at 5500 cm3/s. The air pocket in the tank has a vent at the top and is at 20°C and 1 atm. If the fluids are approximately incompressible, how much air in N/h is passing through the vent? In which direction?
