- Show that Reynold number, pud/µ, is non-dimensional. If the discharge Q through an orifice is a function of the diameter d, the pressure difference p, the density p, and the viscosity µ 1/2 1/2 show that Q = C p?d²/p2 where C is some function of the nondimensional group (dp"“p"µ). %3D 1/21/2arrow_forwardPlease check over this answer to see if there's anything wrong.

- The following figure shows a “wetted-wall” column, in which a thin film of a reacting liquidof viscosity μ flows steadily down a plane wall, possibly for a gas-absorption study. The volumetricflow rate of liquid is specified as Q per unit width of the wall (normal to the plane of the diagram).Assume that there is only one non-zero velocity component, vx , which does not vary in the x directionand that the gas exerts negligible shear stress on the liquid film.(a) Simplify the continuity equation and show that vx = vx(y), i.e., it is a function of y only.(b) Simplify the momentum balance equation in the y-direction and show that dP/dy=0 i.e.,there is no variation of pressure horizontally across the film. Since atmyP =Patm everywhere in the film is equal to Patm. This also means that dP/dx=0(c) Simplify the momentum balance equation in the x-direction and show that it equals the equation c in the image.(d) Solve the above equation with appropriate boundary conditions and show that it…arrow_forwardHow much heat is absorbed by a 27.0 g sample of water in going from liquid at 38.2 °C to steam at 119 °C and a pressure of 1.00 atm?

Over the past 100 years, an average of 850 people have died each year from volcano eruptions. As scientists and engineers study the mechanics of lava flow, accurately predicting the flow rate (velocity) of the lava is critical to saving lives after an eruption. Jeffrey's equation captures the relationship between flow rate and viscosity as: Flow V = Pgt sin(@) 28 сm 10 where p is the density of the lava, g is gravity, t is the flow thickness, a is the slope, and u is the lava viscosity. Typical values are given as follows for the flow rate: u= 4x103 kg/(m.s) ±1% p= 2.5 g/cm³ ±1% t= 28 cm +0.5 cm a= 10° +1 ° g= 9.81 m/s? Determine the likely maximum possible error in the calculated value of the flow rate.arrow_forward
