Chapter 19, Problem 19.1PP
Determine the velocity of flow and the friction loss as
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The velocity of flow
The value of friction loss
Answer to Problem 19.1PP
The velocity of flow, V=570ft/min
The value of friction loss, HL=0.021 in H2O
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Diameter of the duct, D=18in
Rate of flow, Q=1000 cfm
Length of the duct, L=75 ft
To find out the friction loss, we use the formula
Where,
L= Length of the duct
HL=Friction loss
hL=friction loss of water per 100 ft
friction loss of water per 100 ft is calculated by the chart of friction loss in a duct and it is equal to hL=0.028 in H2O
We compare between any two given values and their intersecting point give the third required value
The velocity of flow is also calculated by the chart of friction loss in a duct and it is equal to
The V=570ft/min
Calculation:
Now we put the known values in equation
HL= 0.021 in H2O

Determine the friction loss when circulating 9.4 m3/s of air at 23.9°C through 45.7 m of 0.914 m diameter galvanized steel duct
The air supply to an oil-engine is measured by being taken directly from the
atmosphere into a large reservoir through a sharp-edged orifice 50 mm diameter. The
pressure difference across the orifice is measured by an alcohol manometer set at a slope
of arcsin 0.1 to the horizontal. Calculate the volume flow rate of air if the manometer
reading is 271 mm, the relative density of alcohol is 0.80, the coefficient of discharge for
the orifice is 0.602 and atmospheric pressure and temperature are respectively 755 mmHg
and 15.8 °C. (You may assume R = 287 J · kg¯' ·K!.)
