6 Consider a fully developed laminar flow of a fluid through 8027 m long and 4 cm diameter horizontal and circular pipe. The dynamic density and the viscosity of the fluid are 1252 kg/m³ and 0.3073 kg/(m.s). The velocity profile at a cross-section is given by: u(r)= 6[1 − ( 7 )²] - m/s Where r is the axial distance from the centre and R is the radius of the pipe. Determine the following: (i) (ii) the maximum velocity at a cross-section of the pipe, Umax the average velocity at a cross-section of the pipe, Vave the volume flow rate, Q (iv) Reynolds number, Re (v) friction factor, f (vi) head loss, hi (vii) pressure loss, AP (viii) pumping power required, (ix) for the same pumping power, the percentage decrease of the flow rate if the pipe is inclined 10° upward (assume the head loss, hò, calculated in part (vi) does not change) Useful formulae: 64 f Re h₂ = f ( =) ( 2² ) 2g =

Water (p =1000 kg/m , p=1.59×103 kg /m.s) is flowing with the velocity of 0.25 m/s through a smooth pipe with the diameter of 1 cm at 25 °C. i. Calculate the head loss in 1 m of the pipe. ii. Calculate the head loss if the water velocity increases to 1 m/s.
An incompressible fluid is flowing at steady rate in horizontal pipe. From a section, the pipe divides into two horizontal parallel pipes of diameter (d, and d₂) (where d₁ = 4d₂) that run, for a distance of L each and then again join back to a pipe of the original size. For both the parallel pipes, assume the head loss due to friction only and the Darcy-weisbach friction factor to be same. The velocity ratio between bigger and smaller branched pipe is.
The components of the velocity field is given as u = 0.2 + 0.9x + 0.8y v = -0.5 + 0.9x – 0.9y Calculate the acceleration at point x,y=(0,1) Is this flow field rotational or irrotational? Show. Is this flow compressible or incompressible? Show.
