### Elbow Attached to a Pressurized Water Tank#### Problem DescriptionAn elbow is attached to a pressurized water tank with a gauge pressure \( p_{\text{tank}} = 15 \, \text{kPa} \). Water flows from the elbow into the ambient atmospheric environment. The elbow has an inner diameter of 2 cm, and its loss coefficient \( K_L = 0.3 \). Gravitational and entrance effects are neglected. Assume the elbow is massless, and use the properties of water at 20°C.#### Diagram Explanation- **Diagram Description**: - The diagram shows an elbow attached to a tank. - Arrows indicate the direction of fluid flow and the horizontal force \( F \), required on the flange. - Labels mark the tank, tank wall, flange, and pressure.#### Questions(a) What is the flow rate out of the elbow?(b) Treating the elbow as a tube, what is the Reynolds number? Is the flow laminar or turbulent?(c) What horizontal force on the flange, \( F \), is required to secure the elbow to the tank while the fluid is flowing?#### Considerations- Use fluid mechanics principles to determine flow rate and Reynolds number.- Determine the force \( F \) needed using principles from fluid dynamics and mechanics.

An elbow is to be attached to a pressurized water tank ptank = 15 kPa (gauge). Water is to flow out of the elbow into the ambient, atmospheric environment. The inner diameter of the elbow is 2 cm. The loss coefficient of the elbow is K = 0.3. Neglect gravitational and entrance effects. Assume the elbow is massless. Use properties of water at 20°C. Tank Prank=15 kPa(gauge) Flange Tank walk (a) What is the flow rate out of the elbow? (b) Treating the elbow as a tube, what is the Reynolds number? Is the flow laminar or turbulent? (c) What horizontal force on the flange, F, is required to secure the elbow to the tank while the fluid is flowing?

A pipe is horizontal and carries oil that has a viscosity of 0.14 Pa s. The volume flow rate of the oil is 5.3 × 10^-5 m3/s. The length of the pipe is 38 m, and its radius is 0.57 cm. At the output end of the pipe the pressure is atmospheric pressure. What is the absolute pressure at the input end?
The total head of fan is 200m and has a static pressure of 201mm of water gage. What is the velocity of air flowing if density is 1.16kg/m3. ANSWER: 22.9
A square bottomed tank measures 25*25*160cm and is positioned with the bottom of the tank 1m above sea level and at 20degreesC. The tank is 90% filled with water and 10% air. A water inlet enters the centre of the tank of 10mm diameter, and no other inlet or outlet is open within the tank. A pump drives water at a starting rate of 450ml/min at 0 Pa lowering to 350ml/min as the pressure increases to 800 kPa. The pump and tank are connected by a 10mm diameter pipe with k=0.15 for all fittings and tubing. It should be assumed this is the maximum flow and pressure provided by the pump. The pump will stop instantaneously once the pressure reaches 800kPa. The relationship between flow and pressure from the pump should be assumed linear. What will be the volume of compressed air inside the tank and how long will it take to fill?
