Consider a centrifugal blower that has a radius of 20 cm and a blade width of 9 cm at the impeller inlet, and a radius of 45 cm and a blade width of 6 cm at the outlet. Assuming that air enters the impeller in the radial direction and exits at an angle of 60° from the radial direction, find the volumetric flow at a rotational speed of 700 rpm and power consumption of the blower is 150 W. Take the density of air to be 1.22 kg/m³.

In the jet impact experiment, water jet impacts on a curved vane in the vertical direction. As shown in the figure below, the exit has an angle with respect to the vertical direction. The distance from the nozzle to the vane surface at the exit is h. The water volume flow rate is measured to be Q, the density of water is p, and the cross section area of the nozzle is A₁. Assume that the flow has reached the steady state. (1) Use the Bernoulli's equation to determine the velocity Vout at the exit of the vane. Assume that friction between water and the curved vane can be neglected. (2) Apply the Reynolds transport theorem to derive the expression of the impact force F, on the curved vane (neglect the jet weight). (3) Under the condition of a fixed volume flow rate Q, determine the maximum impact force Fr,max that can be obtained when the angle varies (e.g. in different vane designs). Va out 9 Ao Vout h
