) A 50 mm-diameter propeller was installed in a 150 mm-diameter water pipe and the propeller speed was measured for a range of water discharge in the pipe. The water had a density and dynamic viscosity of 1000 kg/m3 and 0.00112 Ns/m2 respectively. The measured results were as follows: Q (litres/s): 12 28 45 63 95 120 160 180 N (rps): 5 10 15 20 30 40 60 80 Plot the dependence of propeller coefficient against propeller Reynolds number. A...

A long, straight horizontal pipeline of diameter 350 mm and effective roughness size 0.03 mm is to be constructed to convey crude oil of density 860 kg/m3 and absolute viscosity 0.0064 N s∕m2 from the oilfield to a port at a steady rate of 7000 m3/day. Booster pumps, each providing a total head of 20 m with an overall efficiency of 60%, are to be installed at regular intervals. Determine the required spacing of the pumps and the power consumption...

Crude oil of specific gravity (0.75) is flowing through a pipe. The pipe has a diameter of 100 mm and 50 mm at the sections 1 and 2 respectively. The velocity of crude oil at the section 1 is 550 cm/s. The section 1 is 3000 mm and section 2 is 2000 mm above the datum. If the pressure at the section 1 is 0.2 N/mm2, find the intensity of pressure at section 2?

10) A shower pipe at the beach that is 10 cm in diameter carries water (density 1000 kg/m3 ) up a height of 2.0 m, at which point the pipe narrows to 5 cm and continues another 0.50 m up before the water squires out of the pipe 2.5 m above where it started. Ignore viscosity. a) If the water moves at 1.5 m/s in the wider part of the pipe, what is its speed in the narrower part of...
