Chapter 3, Problem 3.62P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

For each of the given reading, the pressure drop, ΔP(mmHg) acorss the orifice should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The pressure of the Hg in manometer has a basic concept that the pressure of any two same height points must be equal.

The manometer has a differential formula:

ΔP=(ρfρac)gh

Where, ρac=0.791g/cm3 is acetone density and ρf=1.10g/cm3 is fluid density.

The g=9.807m/s2 is acceleration due to gravity and h is manometer reading.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

For, V.=K(ΔP)n verify graphically that the given orifice calibration data are correlated by this relationship and determine the value of K and n that best fit the data.

Concept introduction:

The graph has to be plotted taking log as:

lnV.=nln(ΔP)+lnK

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

If the orifice meter has h=23mm, then determine volumetric, mass and molar flow rates of the acetone in the line.

Concept introduction:

The pressure of the Hg in manometer has a basic concept that the pressure of any two same height points must be equal.

The manometer has a differential formula:

ΔP=(ρfρac)gh

Where, ρac=0.791g/cm3 is acetone density and ρf=1.10g/cm3 is fluid density.

The g=9.807m/s2 is acceleration due to gravity and h is manometer reading.
