Chapter 9, Problem 8RQ
- 8. Water (specific gravity = 1.02; viscosity = 0.0102 grams per centimeter second [g/(cm s)]) is pumped through a 0.5-meter [m] diameter pipe. If the Reynolds number is 1800 for the system, determine the velocity of the water in units of meters per second [m/s].

1. The discharge of water, spilled from the spillway of the dam is given by
the following formula in the British unit system.
= 0.07 B H?
Here H shows the water height on the spillway [L]=ft, B shows the spillway's
width [L]=ft, Q shows the discharge on the spillway [L³/s]=ft/s.
(1 ft=0.3048 m)
a. Is|0.07 value a dimensionless(non-dimensional) constant?
b. Can this equation be used in other unit systems?
Please do this carefully.
Send 20 degree Celsius of water at 4.0 [m3 / h]. How many inches of standard steel pipe should be used to set the average flow rate in the pipe to 1.5 ~ 2 [m / s]? At this time, determine the average flow rate and the flow of the fluid.
