Fluid Dynamics

The study of the flow of gases and liquids, usually in and around solid surfaces, is known as fluid dynamics in physics and engineering. Fluid dynamics, for example, can be used to evaluate the movement of air through an airplane wing or the surface of a vehicle. It can also be used in ship design to increase the speed at which ships pass through water.

20.3 cm diam 2.44 m 1.22 m Water Air at 105 kPa and 37°C flows upward through a 6-cm-diameter inclined duct at a rate of Q (L/s). The density of air at this temperature and pressure is 1.10 Kg/m³. The duct diameter is then reduced to 4 cm through a reducer. The pressure change across the reducer is measured by a water Air manometer. The elevation difference between the two points on the pipe where the two arms of the manometer are attached is 0.20 m. Determine the differential height between the fluid levels of the two arms of the manometer. Q (L/s) 90

Can you help me to solve this problem? Water is siphoned from the tank shown on the Figure below. Assuming frictionless flow, determine the mass flowrate from the tank in kg/s to 2 decimal places.

On a trip to the beach (Patm 1 atm or 101.3 kPa), a car runs out of gasoline and it is necessary to siphon gasoline from a Good Samaritan's car. The siphon is a hose with a small diameter and to start the action it is necessary to insert one end into the tank full of gasoline, fill the hose with it through suction and then put the other end in a can that is placed under the tank level. The difference in pressure between point 1 (on the free surface of the gasoline in the tank) and point 2 (at the outlet of the tube) causes the liquid to flow from the highest elevation to the lowest. In this case, point 2 is located 0.75 m below point 1, and point 3 is 2 m above 1. The siphon diameter is 4 mm and friction losses in it must be ruled out. Determine: a) theminimum time to bring 4 L of gasoline from the tank to the can and b) the pressure at point 3. The density of the gasoline is 750 kg / m3.
A pitot tube, with a U-tube manometer containing mercury (density 13,600 kg/m³) is used to measure the velocity of water flowing through a tube. The manometer shows a reading of 20mm Hg. If the tube coefficient is 1.5, calculate the velocity of the flowing water.
Water flows through a corner valve at a flow rate of Q=0.75 m³/s . The pressure just upstream of the valve is P₁ = 500 kPa and the pressure just downstream is P₂ = 300 kPa. The inside pipe diameters of the valve inlet and exit are respectively, D₁ = 5 cm and D₂ = 12 cm. If the flow through the valve occurs in a horizontal plane, determine the head loss, h₂ (in meters) and the rate of loss of available energy (in W) across the valve. D2 Di
