Water at 20◦C is pumped through 1000 ft of 0.425 ft diameter pipe at a volumetric flowrate of 1 ft3/s through a cast iron pipe t

hat connects to connects two reservoirs. The elevation difference between the two reserviors is 120 ft. Find the pumping power delivered to the water. The minor losses only include a wide-open globe valve with KL = 10. Use a density of 1.94 slug/ft3 and a dynamic viscosity of 2.32 × 10−5 lbf·s/ft2 .

Answer:

7582.9 ft.Ibf/s

Explanation:

Given

L=1000ft,d=0.425ft,Q=1ft^3/s,z2-z1=120ft,Kl=10,d=1.94slug/ft^3, vicosity u= 2.32*10-5ibf.s/ft2

Reynold Re= Density*diameter*velocity/ viscosity

But Q=AV

V= 4/3.142*0.425=2.99ft/s

Re= 1.94*0.425*2.99/2.32*10-5)=106455.3

Friction factor=1/√f=-1.8log[((e/d)/3.7)^1.11+6.9/Re] is very neglible hence equals 0

Pump head Hp= z2-z1+v^2/2g[FL/f+KL]

Hp=120+2.99^2/2*32.2(0+10)=121.4ft

Pump power = density*g*Q*hp

1.94*32.2*121.4=7582.9 ft.Ibf/s

Problem 4.079 SI A rigid tank whose volume is 3 m3, initially containing air at 1 bar, 295 K, is connected by a valve to a large

salantis [7]

Answer:

$Q_{cv} = -1007.86kJ$

Explanation:

Our values are,

State 1

$V=3m^3\\P_1=1bar\\T_1 = 295K$

We know moreover for the tables A-15 that

$u_1 = 210.49kJ/kg\\h_i = 295.17kJkg$

State 2

$P_2 =6bar\\T_2 = 296K\\T_f = 320K$

For tables we know at T=320K

$u_2 = 228.42kJ/kg$

We need to use the ideal gas equation to estimate the mass, so

$m_1 = \frac{p_1V}{RT_1}$

$m_1 = \frac{1bar*100kPa/1bar(3m^3)}{0.287kJ/kg.K(295k)}$

$m_1 = 3.54kg$

Using now for the final mass:

$m_2 = \frac{p_2V}{RT_2}$

$m_2 = \frac{1bar*100kPa/6bar(3m^3)}{0.287kJ/kg.K(320k)}$

$m_2 = 19.59kg$

We only need to apply a energy balance equation:

$Q_{cv}+m_ih_i = m_2u_2-m_1u_1$

$Q_{cv}=m_2u_2-m1_u_1-(m_2-m_1)h_i$

$Q_{cv} = (19.59)(228.42)-(3.54)(210.49)-(19.59-3.54)(295.17)$

$Q_{cv} = -1007.86kJ$

The negative value indidicates heat ransfer from the system

An aluminum alloy tube with an outside diameter of 3.50 in. and a wall thickness of 0.30 in. is used as a 14 ft long column. Ass

slega [8]

Answer:

slenderness ratio = 147.8

buckling load = 13.62 kips

Explanation:

Given data:

outside diameter is 3.50 inc

wall thickness 0.30 inc

length of column is 14 ft

E = 10,000 ksi

moment of inertia $= \frac{\pi}{64 (D_O^2 -D_i^2)}$

$I = \frac{\pi}{64}(3.5^2 -2.9^2) = 3.894 in^4$

Area $= \frac{\pi}{4} (3.5^2 -2.9^2) = 3.015 in^2$

$radius = \sqrt{\frac{I}{A}}$

$r = \sqrt{\frac{3.894}{3.015}$

r = 1.136 in

slenderness ratio $= \frac{L}{r}$

$= \frac{14 *12}{1.136} = 147.8$

buckling load $= P_cr = \frac{\pi^2 EI}}{l^2}$

$P_{cr} = \frac{\pi^2 *10,000*3.844}{( 14\times 12)^2}$

$P_{cr} = 13.62 kips$

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Go, but only if the intersection is clear.

Explanation:

Traffic at intersection can be complicated at times. If the green light comes on after a red light, you have the right of way to go, but you should be careful to only go when the intersection is clear to avoid an accident. Once using the road, a good driver should be conscious of the other road users, as accidents might happen from you claiming your-right of-way
