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
