Air with density of 1.225 kg/m^3 and viscosity of 1.789 x 10^-5 kg/m-s flows in a wind tunnel, the wind tunnel spped is measured with Pitot tube probe. For a certain run, the stagantion pressure is measured to be 472.6 Pa gage and the statric pressure is 15.43 Pa gage. Calculate the wind tunnel speed.
A wind tunnel with a 7/1 inlet and test ratio. The test section is at standard sea-level conditions with a velocity of 125 ft/s. Calculate the change in height in the U-tube instrument connected to the test and inlet section, with a liquid densitu of 2.1 slugs/ft^3. The flow is incompressible.
A pitotstatic tube to be used in 2n airplane for on-flight measurement was calibrated on ground by using air of density 1.20 kg/m? . A measurement taken at an altitude of 3000 m where the ambient pressure and density were 70 kPa (abs) and 0.91 ke/m? respectively, indicated a velocity of 200 m/s by using the above ground level calibration. Estimate the true speed of the airplane [Take k = 1.4 and R = 287 (kg K)l.
