Chapter 8, Problem 84P
Air flows out of a clean room test chamber through a 150-mmdiameter duct of length L. The original duct had a square-edged entrance, but this has been replaced with a well-rounded one. The pressure in the chamber is 2.5 mm of water above ambient. Losses from friction are negligible compared with the entrance and exit losses. Estimate the increase in volume flow rate that results from the change in entrance contour.

The air supply to an oil-engine is measured by being taken directly from the
atmosphere into a large reservoir through a sharp-edged orifice 50 mm diameter. The
pressure difference across the orifice is measured by an alcohol manometer set at a slope
of arcsin 0.1 to the horizontal. Calculate the volume flow rate of air if the manometer
reading is 271 mm, the relative density of alcohol is 0.80, the coefficient of discharge for
the orifice is 0.602 and atmospheric pressure and temperature are respectively 755 mmHg
and 15.8 °C. (You may assume R = 287 J · kg¯' ·K!.)
Water enters a pipe of diameter 22 mm with a venturi meter with a throat diameter of 12 mm. At the outlet of the pipe, there is a tank used to measure the flow
discharge. Calculate the discharge coefficient of the venturi if water fills a 10-liter volume of the tank in 12 sec. The pressure head at the entrance and at the throat of
the venturi meter are measured as 4.00 m and 1.00 m, respectively.

A calibration test of a 15 mm circular sharp-edged orifice in the end of a 50 mm pipe showed a discharge of 0.8 liter per second of water when the pressure head on the center line of the pipe just upstream from the orifice was 2.70 m. The diameter of the jet at the vena contracta was found to be 12 mm. Compute the three orifice coefficients. Compute each coefficient independently from the other coefficients.

- Problem 2: A venturimeter with throat diameter 0.065 m and coefficient of discharge 0.95 is used to calibrate a pitot static tube. Air flows through a 110 mm diameter horizontal pipe in which the venturimeter is fitted. The difference in water level in the manometer attached to the venturimeter is 50 mm. The pitot static tube is placed downstream of the venturimeter and the water manometer attached to the pitot static tube shows a reading of 7 mm. Calculate the flow rate through the pipe and the coefficient of velocity of the pitot static tube. Assume the density of air as 1.13 kg/m3 and that of water as 1000 kg/m3.

The differential manometer fluid has a specific gravity of 1.10. The calibration is accomplished by connecting the orifice meter in series with a rotameter that has previously been calibrated for acetone, adjusting a valve to set the flow rate, and recording the flow rate (determined from the rotameter reading and the rotameter calibration curve) and the differential manometer reading, h. The procedure is repeated for several valve settings to generate an orifice meter calibration curve of flow rate versus h. The following data are taken.
