Question

Compressible laminar fl ow, f≈ 64/Re, may occur in capillary
tubes. Consider air, at stagnation conditions of 100°C
and 200 kPa, entering a tube 3 cm long and 0.1 mm in
diameter. If the receiver pressure is near-vacuum, estimate
(a) the average Reynolds number, (b) the Mach number at
the entrance, and (c) the mass flow in kg/h.
