- Inorder to achieve a liquid flow rate of 500 gal/min with a maximum pressure difference of 42 psi, calculate the value of valve flow coefficient. The specific gravity of liquid is 1.3.arrow_forwardThe effect of parallel tubes on flow rate The effect of parallel tubes on flow rate. A: the fluid reservoir is placed on top of the bench (Figure 4A) to give a pressure head. This is connected to the flow module by rubber tubing with a clamp on it. A 5-mL volumetric flask is used to collect fluid, and the time taken with different numbers of tubes in parallel is recorded on a stopwatch. (Figure 4B) The calculated flow rate plotted against the number of tubes. Interpret the graph What variable is the addition of more tubes in parallel affecting? What are the benefits to the tissue of having more blood vessels in parallel?arrow_forwardWater is transported for 500 m in a 4 inch ductile iron pipe (coated) with a flow rate of 0.04 m3/s. Calculate the pressure drop over the 500 m length of pipe. (Calculate the friction factor f using the formula given in class notes/textbook, and not by using the Moody chart).arrow_forward
- Question 7. Since the velocity of the fluid passing through the 4 mm diameter pneumatic pipe in the pneumatic system is 200 cm/s; a) What is the flow rate of the compressed air in lt/min? b) Calculate the velocity of the air passing through 6 mm diameter in the same pressure line.arrow_forwardA certain fluid have a specific gravity of 1.25 flows through a 150-mm diameter pipe with mean velocity of 1.2 m/s. a. Determine the volume flow rate. b. Determine the mass flow rate.arrow_forwardA pipe 100mm in diameter carries oil at a mean velocity of 2m/s Calculate the flow in GPMarrow_forward
- Calculate the Reynolds number of a fluid flowing with a mass flowrate of 20 kg/min through a pipe of diameter 25 mm. The fluid has a viscosity of 0.0015 Ns/m2arrow_forwardThe flow in the pipe becomes turbulent when the Reynolds number reaches 2000 (where Re is calculated using the mean velocity across the pipe). What is the maximum pressure drop along the pipe that can be achieved without the flow becoming turbulent?arrow_forwardThe measured flow rate of water through a 20 mm diameter pipe is 75 L/min. What is the Reynolds (Re) number?arrow_forward
- Acetone at 77degrees flows around the tubes and inside the rectangular passage shown in the figure below. Calculate the volume flow rate of acetone in gal/min required for the flow to have the maximum Reynolds number for laminar flow. Then, compute the energy loss over a length of 200 inches. All surfaces are copper.arrow_forwardCompute points on the velocity profile from the pipe wall to the centerline of a 3/4-in Type K copper tube if the volume flow rate of water at 60'F is Q 0.5 gal/min. Use increments of 0.05 in and include the velocity at the centerline. please be through and provide all calculus and graphs/tablesarrow_forwardAn oil with a specific gravity of 0.84 and a viscosity of 50 cp is flowing downwards in a vertical pipe of inside diameter 3 in. If the water-oil manometer connected to a pitot tube, shows a reading of 25 in, calculate the maximum velocity of the flow of oil in the pipe.
