Whiskey (SG = 0.6 and ν = 5.0 x 10-7 m2/s) is drawn from a large tank through a smoothed, rubber hose as shown in the figure. The total length of the hose to be used is 9 m and the length of the hose to point A is 3.25 m. The intended extraction of whiskey is 10 L/s and minor losses at the entrance are to be neglected. a) Calculate the smallest diameter (in 5 mm interval) required to achieve the required flow using an iterative solution. Use an initial value of the friction factor, f0 = 0.020. b) Is the equation derived by Swamee and Jain applicable to solve the required diameter? Explain. c) Calculate the smallest gage pressure in the hose using the diameter (in 5 mm interval) solved

Question
Whiskey (SG = 0.6 and ν = 5.0 x 10-7 m2/s) is drawn from a large tank through a smoothed, rubber hose as shown in the figure. The total length of the hose to be used is 9 m and the length of the hose to point A is 3.25 m. The intended extraction of whiskey is 10 L/s and minor losses at the entrance are to be neglected.
a) Calculate the smallest diameter (in 5 mm interval) required to achieve the
required flow using an iterative solution. Use an initial value of the friction factor, f0 = 0.020.
b) Is the equation derived by Swamee and Jain applicable to solve the required
diameter? Explain.
c) Calculate the smallest gage pressure in the hose using the diameter (in 5 mm
interval) solved.
