- ANSWER IN DETAILED SOLUTIONarrow_forwardAir flows from a 10cm pipe in which the temperature and pressure are 4-C and 280kpa, respectively, into a 5cm pipe in which the pressure is 147kpa gage. Calculate the velocity and discharge in each pipe, assuming isothermal conditions, standard atmospheric pressure and no losses. The gas constant for air is 280N-m/kg-K.arrow_forward1. Why we use Reynolds number instead of mean velocity as thecriteria to judge the flow state passing through the pipe? 2. Does the ReDL or the ReDU change when the diameter is changed?3. If we replace the pure water with the oil (Newtonian fluids), doesthe lower limit Reynolds number be the same? Why?arrow_forward
- The saturated steam produced in the steam boiler with a flow rate of 4700 kg/h and a pressure of 14 bars is desired to be transported to the point of use by means of a line with an equivalent pipe length of 925 m. The maximum pressure loss in the steam line is 1.5 bar and the Steam speed is between 10 — 20 m/s. What is the optimal pipe diameter that can be selected according to this data?arrow_forwardUnder steady-flow conditions, the fluid properties at an inlet or exit remain constant (do not change with time)arrow_forwardLiquid flows at a rate of 1.5 L/min in a circular tube with a diameter of 5 mm. inside a circular tubeThe vascular endothelial cells are attached.

- Carbon dioxide is being pumped through a smooth pipe at the rate of 3×10-4 kmol/sec for a distance of 2000 m. Ifthe line is isothermal at 323.15 K and the pressure at the entry point is 750 ×103 Pa and at the exit point is 430×103 Pa, what diameter should the pipe has to ensure that the CO2 will be delivered to the end point with the pressure drop experienced. The viscosity of CO2 at 323.15 K is 1.45×10-5kg/m.s. One trial is sufficient given you tell us how you will proceed to achieve an accurate diameter estimate. Hint: for your initial guess, use D in the range of 0.01-0.02 m.arrow_forward13000000 ft3/day of CO must be delievered to aucstomer 60 miles away. The minimum pressure required at the customer's site is 300 psig. The pipe has a diameter of 10 in. Determine the source pressure required. Long pipelines may be considered isothermal at ground temperature at 60 oF.

The tube length is 0.50 m and its diameter varies from 0.01 m at the entrance to 0.005 m at the exit. Determine the pressure drop which is required to maintain the flow at a rate of 10-7 m3 s-1. The effect of kinetic energy due to the change in velocity in the tube may be neglected. Show the derivation of the final eauation used in solving this problem.arrow_forward
- Question 2 Water (with a viscosity µ of 0.00958 N.s/m²) is flowing in a pipe with a diameter of 10 cm at a dish washing place in a kitchen . The equation of the velocity profile of water in the pipe is: -= 0.372|1- (4)| Where V is the velocity (m/s); r is the distance from the center of pipe and R is radius of the pipe(m). Evaluate the shear stress (Tw) on the wall of the pipe.arrow_forwardWhat is the Reynolds number of a fluid flowing in a tube with an inside diameter of 2 inches? The viscocity is 1.358 x 10^-5 lb/ft-s and the mass flow rate is 73 lb/h.arrow_forwardWorking for an engineering consultancy firm, your knowledge of fluid dynamics is required to design a new safety feature for a high-pressure air line in a factory. The air line takes the form of a cylindrical pipe of diameter 150 mm, which is designed to operate between 0.45 MPa and 0.76 MPa. At the end of the pipe a bursting disk is placed so that, if the pressure exceeds the maximum operating pressure, the air is vented to atmosphere rather than over-pressuring the chemical reaction vessel (Figures 4a and 4b). In this question, you should treat the flow as quasione-dimensional and inviscid. The air in the surrounding atmosphere is at 101 kPa and 298 K. Due to an over-pressurisation of the air line, the disk bursts at time t = 0. At what pressure in the air line will this occur?arrow_forward
