Consider the piping system shown in the accompanying figure. The speed of water flowing through the 10 cm diameter section of the piping system is 1 m/s. What is the volume flow rate of water in the piping system? Express the volume flow rate in L/s. For the case of steady flow of water through the piping system, what is the speed of water in the 7.5 cm diameter section of the system?
The flow rate of water through a 10-cm-diameter pipe is to be determined by measuring the water velocity at several locations along a cross section. For the set of measurements given in the table, determine the flow rate.
The tank shown in the accompanying figure is being filled by Pipes 1 and 2. If the water level is to remain
constant, what is the mass-flow rate of water leaving the tank at Pipe 3? What is the average velocity of the
water leaving the tank?
Pipe 1:
di =1 in.
V = 2 ft/s
Pipe 2:
d = 1.75 in.
V = 1.5 fUs
Pipe 3:
d3 = 1.5 in.
V = ?
