In large buildings, hot water in a water tank is circulated through a loop so that the user doesn’t have to wait for all the water in long piping to drain before hot water starts coming out. A certain recirculating loop involves 300-foot-long, 1-inch--diameter PEX pipes with six 90° threaded smooth bends and two fully open gate valves. The PEX piping is considered to be smooth (roughness is 0). If the average flow velocity through the loop is 5 ft/s, determine the pump power needed to overcome the loss in watts to three significant figures. Take the average water temperature to be 180 F (values for water in the text appendix).

Question 1) As water passes from a pipe of larger diameter to a pipe of smaller diameter in converging section, the static pressure:
Becomes half
Increases
Decreases
Does not change
Question 2) The following reading have to be recorded from the flow measurement apparatus to calculate the mass flow rate from the venturimeter?
Pressures at the inlet and exit of the venturimeter
Pressures at the inlet and throat of the venturimeter
The rotameter reading venturimeter
The pressure at the throat and exit of the venturimeter
Question 3) If the flow rate of water increases, then the pressure drop in the venturimeter
increases
decreases
remains same
cannot say
Question 4) The pressure measuring instrument can directly provide electrical signals which could be used to collect data using data acquisition systems and read on a PC
Bourdon Gauge
inclined manometer
Pressure Transducer
Vertical manometer
Question 5) How do you vary the flow rate through the fluid fow measurement experimental setup?
by increasing or decreasing the amount of water coliected in the weighing tank
by increasing or decreasing the time taken to collect the amount of water in the weighing tank
by varying the speed of the pump
by closing or opening the valve at the discharge section of the apparatus
Question 6) In the flow measurement experiment, consider using the weighing tank method for measuring the flowrate. If a 6 kg mass is added to the weight hanger and it takes 60 seconds for the weight hanger to move up again, how much will be the calculated flow rate? (show steps please)
1 kg/s
3 kg/s
0.3 kg/s
0.1 kg/s

An isotropic alloy contains 5% by volume of a precipitate of radius 10nm. Assume the primary metal is in a simple cubic arrangement. The alloy has a Young's modulus E=70GPa and a Poisson's ratio ν=0.35. If Γ=0.9J/m2 (the energy needed to cut through the precipitate lattice per unit surface area), and b=0.25nm, what is the precipitate spacing L in the alloy?

Instead of introducing a precipitate into the primary metal, alumina, a dispersion compound is introduced.
Consider the dislocation shown below, which bows to a radius of curvature R at an angle θ between two particles a distance L apart. Use the expression for line tension in a dislocation, the geometry of the bowing dislocation, and the force resulting from the applied shear stress to obtain an expression relating the applied shear stress and dislocation radius R. Express your answer in terms of the shear modulus G, the Burgers vector b, and the dislocation radius R.
(Hint: Draw the free body diagram for one of the particles. The force exerted by the stress on the dislocation is F=τbL)

Refined crude oil has been used to lubricate moving parts in a wide variety of machines and engines. These petroleum-based lubricants are extracted from natural crude oil, and must be refined, desalted, dewaxed, and distilled from crude feedstock. However, recently, engineers are moving towards non-petroleum based lubricants or known as synthetic lubricants. Obtain information about non-petroleum based lubricants and summarize your findings in a brief report by following the format given below. The report should contain minimum 1500 words (excluding figure and table title and content, references)
Section 1: Introduction |
