(Moment-of-momentum) A small water turbine is designed as shown in the figure below. If the flowrate through the turbine is 0.00292 slugs/s, and the rotor speed is 265 rpm, estimate the (a) shaft torque and (b) shaft power involved. Each nozzle exit cross-sectional area is 3.5x105 ft². (a) i -0.00217 (b) i -0.0602 Nozzle exit area= 3.5 x 105 ² ft-lb ft·lb

Applied Fluid Mechanics

A fluid is a substance that is continuously deformed by the application of shear stress. The rate of deformation of a fluid depends on its viscosity. The fluid tries to flow when it interacts with some other system.
