The Reynolds number is a dimensionless group defined for a fluid flowing in a pipe as Re Durho/μ whereD is pipe diameter, u is f

luid velocity, rho is fluid density, and μ is fluid viscosity.When the value of the Reynolds number is less than about 2100, the flow is laminar—that is, the fluid flows in smooth streamlines. For Reynolds numbers above 2100, the flow is turbulent, characterized by a great deal of agitation. Liquid methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) flows through a pipe with an inner diameter of 2.067 inches at an average velocity of 0.48 ft/s. At the fluid temperature of 20°C the density of liquid MEK is 0.805 g/cm3 and the viscosity is 0.43 centipoise [1 cP 1:00 103 kg/ m s]. Without using a calculator, determine whether the flow is laminar or turbulent. Show your calculations.

Answer:

the flow is turbulent

Explanation:

The Reynolds number is given by

Re=ρVD/μ

where

V=fluid speed=0.48ft/s=0.146m/s

D=diameter=2.067in=0.0525m

ρ=density=0.805g/cm^3=805Kg/m^3

μ=0.43Cp=4.3x10^-4Pas

Re=(805)(0.146)(0.0525)/4.3x10^-4=14349.59

Re>2100  the flow is turbulent

Note: if you do not want to use a calculator you can use the graphs to calculate the Reynolds number according to their properties

When the compression process is non-quasi-equilibrium, the molecules before the piston face cannot escape fast enough, forming a
muminat

Answer:

a. true

Explanation:

Firstly, we need to understand what takes places during the compression process in a quasi-equilibrium process. A quasi-equilibrium process is a process in during which the system remains very close to a state of equilibrium at all times.  When a compression process is quasi-equilibrium, the work done during the compression is returned to the surroundings during expansion, no exchange of heat, and then the system and the surroundings return to their initial states. Thus a reversible process.

While for a non-quasi equilibrium process, it takes more work to move the piston against this high-pressure region.
