A clothes dryer discharges air at 1 atm and 120° F at a rate of 1.2 ft/s when its 5-in-
diameter, well-rounded vent with negligible loss is not connected to a duct. The vent is
then connected to a 15-ft-long, 5-in-diameter duct made of galvanized iron, with three 90°
flanged smooth bends. Assuming the fan power driving the flow is constant, determine the
new volume flow rate. Take the Darcy friction factor of the duct to be 0.021.
