Chapter 5, Problem 5.65PP

Wetsuits are prohibited in some triathlons due to the added buoyancy they provide the swimmer, essentially holding a greater portion of the body above the water and decreasing the power required to swim. If a given suit is made of 1.8 square yards of the material, and it is 0.25 in thick and has a specific weight of 38   l b / f t 3 , what net buoyant effect would aid the swimmer in seawater?

First monthly exam Gas dynamics Third stage Q1/Water at 15° C flow through a 300 mm diameter riveted steel pipe, E-3 mm with a head loss of 6 m in 300 m length. Determine the flow rate in pipe. Use moody chart. Q2/ Assume a car's exhaust system can be approximated as 14 ft long and 0.125 ft-diameter cast-iron pipe ( = 0.00085 ft) with the equivalent of (6) regular 90° flanged elbows (KL = 0.3) and a muffler. The muffler acts as a resistor with a loss coefficient of KL= 8.5. Determine the pressure at the beginning of the exhaust system (pl) if the flowrate is 0.10 cfs, and the exhaust has the same properties as air.(p = 1.74 × 10-3 slug/ft³, u= 4.7 x 10-7 lb.s/ft²) Use moody chart (1) MIDAS Kel=0.3 Q3/Liquid ammonia at -20°C is flowing through a 30 m long section of a 5 mm diameter copper tube(e = 1.5 × 10-6 m) at a rate of 0.15 kg/s.

The air is at a pressure of 1.013 bar and a temperature of 27 °C. Calculate the throat diameter of the choke for air flow velocity of 90 m/sec. Take velocity coefficient to be 0.8. Assume isentropic flow and the flow to be compressible. Quiz/ Determine the air-fuel ratio supplied at 5000 m altitude by a carburetor which is adjusted to give an air-fuel ratio of 14:1 at sea level where air temperature is 27 °C and pressure is 1.013 bar. The temperature of air decreases with altitude as given by the expression The air pressure decreases with altitude as per relation h = 19200 log10 (1.013), where P is in bar.
