A 2-in sch40 pipe line carries water at 70°C. A sharp-edged
orifice (1.077 inches in diameter) serves as the primary element
of the flowmeter. The secondary element is a mercury-eater
manometer whose branches have a differential in level of 22 in
at maximum flow. The manometer is to be inverted and used as
an air-water manometer, maintaining the 22-in differential at
maximum flow. What new orifice diameter (in inches) is
needed?
A 100mm circular sharp edge hole in the end of a 150mm pipe discharges oil (s = 0.90). The vapor pressure in the closed tank is – 20 kPa, and the pressure head on the centerline of the pipe directly upstream from the orifice is 9m of oil. There is no submersion of the discharge. If CV = 0.97 and Q = 83 liters/s, find the discharge coefficient.
Answer: C = 0.68
pump with critical cavitation number 0,08 pumps water to a total head of 60 m and temperature of 15°C (Pv=1707 Pa). If the barometric pressure is 98 kPa, head loss in the suction pipe is 1m. Find the maximum value of static suction lift in meters to avoid cavitation in the pump.
