Consider oil flowing through a horizontal pipe at a rate of 3 liter/s. There are two sections of the pipe with diameters 10 cm and 7 cm and the two sections are connected by a smooth reducing section as shown in the schematic. We use a manometer with glycerin as the manometer fluid (with glycerin density of Pglycerin 1,260 kg/m³) to measure the pressure difference between the two pipe sections. Assume that frictional effects are negligible and consider specific gravity of oil as SGoil = 0.76. What is the manometer reading, h (i.e. differential height of glycerin between the two arms of the manometer)?

A horizontal fan (such as that shown in example 5.24) pulls in stagnant air (ie. basically stationary air) atatmospheric pressure; the air approaches the fan outlet with speed 44 ft/sec (ie. 30 mph) and with static pressure 0.3 psi. The air flowing through the fan can be assumed to have a constant density of 2.4*10-3 slug/ft3. The air losses due to friction are 0.1 psi (or 6000 ft-lb/slug of air passing from the fan inlet to the outlet). a) Determine the shaft work in ft-lb/slug b) If the fan outlet area is 2 ft2, determine the rate of work on the air.
