Chapter 5, Problem 56P
Air at 105 kPa and 37°C flows upward through a 6-cm-diameter inclined duct at a rate of 65 L/s. The duct diameter is then reduced to 4 cm through a reducer. The pressure change across the reducer is measured by a water manometer. The elevation difference between the two points on the pipe where the two arms of the manometer are attached is 0.20 m. Determine the differential height between the fluid levels of the to arms of the manometer.

The air velocity in the duct of a heating system is to be measured by a Pitot-static probe inserted into the duct parallel to flow. If the differential height between the water columns connected to the two outlets of the probe is 2.4 cm, determine the flow velocity at the center of the duct in m/s. R of air is 287 J/Kg-K.
The air velocity in the duct of a heating system is to be measured by a Pitot-static probe inserted into the duct parallel to the flow. If the differential height between the water columns connected to the two outlets of the probe is 3.2 cm, determine (a) the flow velocity and (b) the pressure rise at the tip of the probe.
