Chapter 7, Problem 7.16P

A certain tank has a circular bottom area A = 20 ft2. It is drained by a pipe whose linear resistance is R — 150 m-1sec_1. The tank contains water whose mass density is 1.94 slug/ft3.

  1. Estimate how long it will take for the tank to empty if the water height is initially 30 ft.
  2. Suppose we dump water into the tank at a rate of 0.1 ft3/sec. If the tank is initially empty and the outlet pipe remains open, find the steady-state height and the time to reach one-third that height, and estimate how long it will take to reach the steady-state height.

Through a duct air enters a fan at 6.3 m/s and an inlet static pressure 2.5 cm of water less than atmospheric pressure. The air leaves the fan through a duct at 11.25 m/s and a discharge static pressure of 7.62 cm of water above the atmospheric pressure. If the specific weight of the air is 1.2 kg/cubic meters and the fan delivers 9.45 cubic meters/sec, what is the fan efficiency when the power input to the fan is 13.75 kW at the coupling
In Figure 1, a reducing elbow is used to deflect water flow at a rate of 18 kg/s in a horizontal pipe upward 40o while accelerating. The elbow discharge water into the atmosphere. The cross sectional area of the elbow is 120 cm2 at the inlet and 10 cm2 at the outlet. The elevation difference between the centers of the outlet and the inlet is 50 cm. The weight of the elbow and the water in it is considered to be negligible. If the density of water is 1000 kg/m3 and momentum-flux correction factor is 1.03, determine:  - The velocity of water at the inlet and outlet and                                  - The gage pressure at the center of the inlet of the elbow
Water flowing through a pipe of constant cross section, 11 cm in diameter, as shown in Fig. shown in the figure below. It has a speed of 5 m/s at the bottom and has traveled 2 m in height before being dumped into the environment, where the local atmospheric pressure is 1 atm. Assuming conservation of flow, what is the velocity of the water as it leaves the pipe (b) Calculate the pressure using Bernoulli's equation. (C) Determine the time, in seconds, required for 1 m³ of water to flow through the opening of the pipe.
