Chapter 7, Problem 58P

When a sphere of 0.25 mm diameter and specific gravity 5.54 is dropped in water at 25°C it will attain a constant velocity of 0.07 m/s. What specific gravity must a 2.5 mm sphere have so that when it is dropped in crude oil at 25°C the two flows will be dynamically similar when the terminal velocity is attained?

Air with a uniform current at a speed of 100 ft per sec is flowing around a ROTATING cylinder with a radius of 15 in. The cylinder is rotating about 100 times per minute. The freestream is said to be at Standard Sea Level Condition. At an angle of 20 deg with the direction of the flow, what is the pressure at that point?

A cylindrical machine part moves within a surrounding cylinder. The centrelines of the part and the surrounding cylinder are coincident. The cylinder is full of an oil (viscosity 0.25kg/ms) that is not flowing i.e. no pressure gradient is applied. What is the value of the viscous force exerted on the machine part as it moves along the cylinder at a speed of 9m/s? • The machine part is 0.06m long and has a radius of 0.041m. • The ratio of the machine part radius to the cylinder radius is 0.98. • Assume that the flow is dominated by viscous forces. • Give your answer as an absolute value i.e. no negative sign, in Newtons to one decimal place.

Problem 6.2 The gap between a moving plate of height H and a stationary wall is filled with an incompressible liquid with density pliq. The plate is pushed to the right at a constant speed Vplate. At the bottom sliding joint, there is a seal to prevent leakage. The gap width x and the liquid height y are continuously changing with time. The length dimension L into the page is constant. Side View: H V plate seal X Stationary wall (a) Determine rate of change of the liquid width with time, (d x/d t) in terms of the given variables (i.e., Vplate). (b) Assume the moving plate height H is tall enough that the liquid does not spill over. Determine the rising rate of the liquid top surface (d y/d t) in terms of the given variables. (c) Assume the moving plate height H is too short and the liquid spills over as the plate keeps moving. Determine the mass flow rate of the spillage in terms of the given variables.
