The Center of Pressure Apparatus was designed to determine the hydrostatic force exerted by a fluid on a submerged surface. When the 75mm x 100mm plane of the torus is fully submerged under water, the depth measured from the base of the vertical plane to the water surface was 110mm and that the total weight (including the weight of the hanger) that balanced the torus was 270g. a) What is the magnitude of the theoretical hydrostatic force in Newtons? b) What is the magnitude of the experimental hydrostatic force in Newtons? c) Determine the percentage error between the theoretical and experimental values.
Water at 20°C flows through an inclined circular conduit as shown. The conduit is inclined at an angle of 0 = 40 ° and undergoes a contraction from a larger to a smaller diameter. The diameters upstream and downstream of the contraction are D= |20 mm and d = 60 mm respectively. Pressure gages are installed near the entrance and exit of the contraction as shown, separated by a distance of L = 1.9 m. A differential manometer is also installed with ends at the same sections as the pressure gages. The manometer fluid has specific gravity of 13.6. pressure gages h flow differential manometer Q Tap image to zoom
Consider a system where a horizontal, laminar, separated flow of air and water at 100 kPa pressure and 20 C temperature are moving between two infinitely-sized parallel plates. The water flow is not forced, but is carried along by the air flow. The 'superficial velocity' of the air is 0.1 m/s (superficial velocity is volume flow rate / flow area, representing the average velocity of the flow). The depth of the water film is 2 mm and the thickness of the air layer is 5 mm. Use the multiphase balance equations and interfacial boundary conditions to derive the velocity profile in the air and water, with y=0 being the interface between the two.
