Textbook Question
Chapter 7, Problem 18P
Derive an expression for the axial thrust exerted by a propeller if the thrust depends only on forward speed, angular speed, size, and viscosity and density of the fluid. How would the expression change if gravity were a relevant variable in the case of a ship propeller?

A centrifugal pump, pumps water at 0.240 m3/s rotating at 1200 rpm, a prototype pump using 10 lit/s is to be tested. If the diameter of the model is 3 times the diameter of the prototype, at what speed should the prototype run, if the pump pumps oil at a head of 30 meters. (a)What would be the required horsepower to drive the model at an efficiency of 0.8? (b)What would be the required horsepower to drive the prototype?
A submarine (assuming spherical in shape) has a volume of approximately 10,000 ft3 and is descending freely (with all engines turned off) in seawater at a constant speed of approximately 5 ft/s. (a) What is the average density of the submarine. (Assume seawater density is 5% higher than pure water). (b) What is the power (horsepower) required to push the submarine upward with a constant speed of 3 ft/s.
Please include explanation.
A 6-MW offshore wind turbine has a capacity factor of 40%. It has a height of 120 m, and 107-m long blades. The angular acceleration is 1.388 rad/s2. Assume that the distance from the center of the turbine to the connection with the blade is negligible, and that the turbine starts from rest. At ? = 12 s, calculate the velocity and the acceleration for points (a) at half the length and (b) at the tip of the blade.

- (a) Figure la shows a commercial vehicle and a car. Sketch carefully the detail flow patterns that you would expect to find for each vehicle where the fluid has ideal and real properties. Also for each case, provide a brief explanation of the flow pattern you have presented and include in your discussion any likely pressure variations that occur over the vehicle body. If both vehicles are travelling at the same speed, why will the aerodynamic forces differ. (You may wish to copy the image into your answer document).
