Chapter 18, Problem 18.1PP

A pipe in a compressed air system is carrying 2650 cfm. Compute the flow rate in ft3/s.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

Calculate the flow rate in ft3/s.

Answer to Problem 18.1PP

The flow rate in ft3/s is, Q=44.1667ft3/s

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Volume flow rate in a pipe, Q= 2650 cfm

Calculation:

We know that, 1cfm=0.01666667ft3/s

Now

   Q=2650cfm=2650X0.01666667ft3/sQ=44.1667ft3/s

Q Derive (continuity equation)? I want to derive clear mathematics.
motor supplies 200 kW at 6 Hz to flange A of the shaft shown in Figure. Gear B transfers 125 W of power to operating machinery in the factory, and the remaining power in the shaft is mansferred by gear D. Shafts (1) and (2) are solid aluminum (G = 28 GPa) shafts that have the same diameter and an allowable shear stress of t= 40 MPa. Shaft (3) is a solid steel (G = 80 GPa) shaft with an allowable shear stress of t = 55 MPa. Determine: a) the minimum permissible diameter for aluminum shafts (1) and (2) b) the minimum permissible diameter for steel shaft (3). c) the rotation angle of gear D with respect to flange A if the shafts have the minimum permissible diameters as determined in (a) and (b).
