Chapter 8, Problem 64P
When oil (kinematic viscosity 1 × 10−4 m2/s, specific gravity 0.92) flows at a mean velocity of 1.5m/s through a 50-mm-diameter pipeline, the head lost in 30 m of pipe is 5.4 m. What will be the head loss when the velocity is increased to 3 m/s?

liquid (density 800kg/m3, viscosity 10−3 kg/ms) has to be supplied at a mean speed of 2m/s through a pipe of diameter 12.5mm with a surface roughness equivalent to that for structural steel. What is the magnitude of the pressure gradient necessary to achieve this flow? Your answer should have a positive sign and be to the nearest 10 Pa/m. You may wish to use the Moody diagram.
Oil flows at 55.9L/s in a pipe of 160mm diameter and 50m length. SG of oil is 0.9 and viscosity is 0.04 Pa-sec. If head loss is 5.22m, determine:
a. Mean Velocity of flow (m/s)
b. Type of flow
c. Friction Factor
d. Velocity at the centerline of pipe (m/s)
e. The shear stress at the wall of the pipe (Pa)
The ethanol solution is pumped into a vessel 25 m above the reference point through a 25 mm diameter steel pipe at a rate of 8 m3/hour. The length of the pipe is 35m and there are 2 elbows. Calculate the pump power requirement. The properties of the solution are density 975 kg/m3 and viscosity 4x 10-4 Pa s.
a. Reynolds number =
b. Energy Loss along a straight pipe = J/kg.
c. Energy Loss in turns = J/kg.
d. Total energy to overcome friction = J/kg.
e. Energy to raise water to height = J/kg.
f. Theoretical energy requirement of the pump kg ethanol/second = J/kg.
