A 2-ft diameter column packed with l-teu ceramic Raschig rings was operated with air and water and found to flood at an airflow rate of 356 cfm. Air entered the column at 80 °F and 1.0 atm, and the column operated at these same conditions. What was the flow rate of liquid to the column, in gallons per minute?

A differential mercury manometer (Figure 3) is being used to measure the air flow rate inside a horizontal tubing. Considering that g = 9.8 m/s2, ρHg = 13,595 − 2.5 T kg/m3(T in Celsius), and T = 10 oC and the height difference is 200 mm, calculate the pressure drop in kPa.
(cc) BY-NO-SA Niel Crews, 2013 An insulated, rigid vessel is initially empty (evacuated). However, it is connected to a steam line that is maintained at 200 psia and 500 °F. The valve is opened until the flow into the tank slows and stops (which occurs when the pressure in the tank is equal to the pressure in the steam line), at which point the valve is closed. What is the temperature within the vessel? °F
Compute the capillary effect of immersion in water of a glass tube of 4mm internal diameter given the surface tension value is 0.073573 N/m, the density value is 990 kg/m^3 and the angle of contact is zero. Express your answer in SI units. Indicate the appropriate unit.
A capillary tube viscometer is being selected to measure viscosity of a liquid food. The maximum viscosity to be measured will be 230 cP and the maximum flow rate that can be measured accurately is 0.015 kg/min. If the tube length is 10cm and a maximum pressure of 25 Pa can be measured, determine the tube diameter to be used. The density of the product is 1000 kg/m3.

When there are only a few upstream calming distances available, the annular venturi meter is helpful for metering flows in pipe systems. The cylindrical component of the annular venturi meter is installed inside a pipe, as seen in the image. Between the upstream pipe and the area close to the cylindrical portion, the pressure differential is monitored. In the system, air flows under normal circumstances. 10 cm is the pipe's diameter. The interior pipe diameter to the diameter of the cylindrical portion is 0.8. Water pressure is measured to be off by 5 cm. Track down the system's volume flow rate. Assume the flow is constant, incompressible, and viscous, and that the velocity is distributed equally throughout the pipe sections. Utilize typical air conditions at 25 °C and 101 kPa.

Working for an engineering consultancy firm, your knowledge of fluid dynamics is required to design a new safety feature for a high-pressure air line in a factory. The air line takes the form of a cylindrical pipe of diameter 150 mm, which is designed to operate between 0.45 MPa and 0.76 MPa. At the end of the pipe a burs9ng disk is placed so that, if the pressure exceeds the maximum opera9ng pressure, the air is vented to atmosphere rather than over-pressuring the chemical reac9on vessel (Figures 4a and 4b). In this ques9on, you should treat the flow as quasione-dimensional and inviscid. The air in the surrounding atmosphere is at 101 kPa and 298 K. a) You have a choice of five disks which can withstand the following forces across them before burs9ng: 10.5 kN, 11.0 kN, 11.5 kN, 12.0 kN, 12.5 kN. Which of these burs9ng disks would you recommend, and why? b) Due to an over-pressurisa9on of the air line, the disk bursts at 9me t = 0. At what pressure in the air line will this occur? c)…
(a) Determine the height water at 70°F will rise due to capillary action in a clean, 1/4-in.-diameter tube. (b) What will be the height if the diameter is reduced to 0.01 in.? At this temperature, water = 0.00497 lb/ft and ywater = 62.3 lb/ft³. Use 0 = 0°.
I did a venturi effect experiment which involved taking 15 mesurements. The opening of the damper at the end of the tube was increasing in increments of 0.5cm for each of the 15 mesurements. Then the change in length in manometer tube was recorded. the manometer tube used in this experiment wasn't vertical, it was horizontal with a slight incline. Room temperature and pressure were recorded at the start of experiment as well. As the opening of the damper increased from mesurements 1 to 15, the change in length of manometer tube also increase from 1 to 15. the bigger diameter of the tube is 140mm and the diameter of throat section is 89mm. The density of the fluid is 870 kg/m. Using this information workout all the equations on the image and also the mass flow rate which should be volumetric flow rate multiplied by density. Also workout the reynolds number. Workout all these to determine the relationship between mass flow rate, velocity value and reynolds number. Let me know if you want…
