Water flows through a horizontal 60 mm diameter galvanized iron pipe at a rate of 0.02 m3/s. If the pressure drop is 135 kPa per

maksim [4K]

Answer:

pipe is old one with increased roughness

Explanation:

discharge is given as

$V =\frac{Q}{A} = \frac{ 0.02}{\pi \4 \times (60\times 10^{-3})^2}$

V = 7.07 m/s

from bernou;ii's theorem we have

$\frac{p_1}{\gamma} +\frac{V_1^2}{2g} + z_1 = \frac{p_2}{\gamma} +\frac{V_2^2}{2g} + z_2 + h_l$

as we know pipe is horizontal and with constant velocity so we have

$\frac{P_1}{\gamma } + \frac{P_2 {\gamma } + \frac{flv^2}{2gD}$

$P_1 -P_2 = \frac{flv^2}{2gD} \times \gamma$

$135 \times 10^3 = \frac{f \times 10\times 7.07^2}{2\times 9.81 \times 60 \times 10^{-5}} \times 1000 \times 9.81$

solving for friction factor f

f = 0.0324

fro galvanized iron pipe we have $\epsilon = 0.15 mm$

$\frac{\epsilon}{d} = \frac{0.15}{60} = 0.0025$

reynold number is

$Re =\frac{Vd}{\nu} = \frac{7.07 \times 60\times 10^{-3}}{1.12\times 10^{-6}}$

Re = 378750

from moody chart

$For Re = 378750 and \frac{\epsilon}{d} = 0.0025$

$f_{new} = 0.025$

therefore new friction factor is less than old friction factoer hence pipe is not new one

now for Re = 378750 and f = 0.0324

from moody chart

we have $\frac{\epsilon}{d} =0.006$

$\epsilon = 0.006 \times 60$

$\epsilon = 0.36 mm$

thus pipe is old one with increased roughness

2. What is the main job of a cylinder head?

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cylinder head sits on the engine and closes off the combustion chamber. The gap that remains between the cylinder head and the engine is completed by the head gasket. Another task of the cylinder head is to ensure the constant lubrication of the cylinder

If welding is being done in the vertical position, the torch should have a travel angle of?

siniylev [52]

Answer:

Between 35°– 45°

Explanation:

In the vertical position, Point the flame in the direction of travel. Keep the flame tip at the correct height above the base metal. An angle of 35°–45° should be maintained between the torch tip and the base metal. This angle may be varied up or down to heat or cool the weld pool if it is too narrow or too wide
