A round pipe of varying diameter carries petroleum from a wellhead to a refinery. At the wellhead, the pipe's diameter is 57.3 c

m ( 0.573 m) and the flow speed of the petroleum is 13.5 m/s. At the refinery, the petroleum flows at 5.83 m/s. What is the volume flow rate of the petroleum along the pipe and what is the pipe's diameter at the refinery?

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter of pipe,d_1=0.573 m

v_1=13.5 m/s

v_2=5.83 m/s

Volume flow rate of the petroleum along the pipe=Q_{refinery}=A_1v_1=v_(\frac{\pi d^2_1}{4})

Q_{refinery}=13.5\times (\pi\times \frac{0.573)^2}{4})=3.48 m^3/s

By equation of continuity

A_1v_1=A_2v_2

\frac{\pi d^2_1}{4}v_1=\frac{\pi d^2_2}{4}v_2

d^2_2=\frac{v_1}{v_2}d^2_1

d_2=\sqrt{\frac{v_1}{v_2}}d_1

d_2=0.573\sqrt{\frac{13.5}{5.83}}

d_2=0.87 m

d_2=0.87\time 100=87 cm

1 m=100 cm

Answer:

The minimum diameter of the stick to bear the normal stress as 100 psi is 0.1785 in.

Explanation:

Taking moment along point A

\sum M_A=0\\F_{BC} sin 60 \times 48 -13 \times 8=0\\F_{BC}=2.502 lb_f

Also normal stress is given as 100 psi

Now

                      \sigma=\frac{F}{A}\\100=\frac{2.502}{\pi \frac{d^2}{4}}\\d^2 =\frac{4 \times 2.502}{100 \pi }\\d^2=0.031856\\d=\sqrt{0.031856}\\d=0.1785 inch

The minimum diameter of the stick to bear the normal stress as 100 psi is 0.1785 in.
