A pressure gage at the inlet to a gas compressor indicates that the gage pressure is 40.0 kPa. Atmospheric pressure is 1.01 bar. The absolute pressure at the exit is 6.5 times the absolute pressure at the inlet. What is the absolute pressure of the gas at the inlet and what is the gage pressure of the gas at the exit?

The viscosity of liquids can be measured through the use of a rotating cylinder viscometer of the type illustrated in Fig. P1.3. In this device the outer cylinder is fixed and the inner cylinder is rotated with an angular velocity w. The torque T, required to develop w is measured and the viscosity is calculated from these two measurements. Develop an equation relating u, w, T, e, Ro and Ri. Neglect end effects and assume the velocity distribution in the gap is linear.…
