(a) Does this profile satisfy the correct boundary conditions for viscous fluid flow? (b) Find an analytical expression for the volume flow Q at the exit. (c) If the inlet flow is 300 ft 3 /min, estimate umax in m/s. Solution: (a) The fluid should not slip at any of the duct surfaces, which are defined by y b and z h. From our formula, we see u 0 at all duct surfaces, OK. Ans.

(c) s 9 P3.33 In some wind tunnels the test section is perforated to suck out fluid and provide a thin viscous boundary layer. The test section wall in Fig. P3.33 contains 100 holes of 5-mm diameter each per square meter of wall area. The suction velocity through each hole is Vr 8 m/s, and the test-section entrance velocity is V1 35 m/s. Assuming incompressible steady flow of air at 0 C, compute (a) Vo, (b) V, and (c) Vf, in m/s.

(c) s P3.49 The horizontal nozzle in Fig. P3.49 has D1 1 in, D 6 in, with p1 38 psia and V 56 ft/s. For water at 0 C, find the force provided by the flange bolts to hold the nozzle fixed. Solution: For an open, p pa 15 psia. Subtract pa everywhere so the only nonzero pressure is p psig. The mass balance yields the inlet velocity: VA 1 1=VA, ft V 1 (1) (56) (6), V s The density of water is 1.94 slugs per cubic foot.

If 30, estimate the horizontal force F needed to hold the tank stationary. Solution: The CV surrounds the tank and wheels and cuts through the, as shown. We should assume that the splashing into the tank does not increase the x-momentum of the water in the tank. Then we can write the CV horizontal force relation: d Fx F u d m inuin 0 mv independent of dt tank slug ft Thus F A jv j 1.94 ft 50 Ans lbf ft 4 1 s Fig. P3.61

4 P3.95 A cylindrical water tank discharges through a well-rounded orifice to hit a plate, as in Fig. P3.95. Use the Torricelli formula of Prob. P3.81 to estimate the exit velocity. (a) If, at this instant, the force F required to hold the CV h plate is 40 N, what is the depth h? F (b) If the tank surface is dropping at the rate of 5 cm every seconds, what is the tank diameter D? d = 4 cm D Fig. P3.95 Solution: For water take = 998 kg/m 3.

The fluid enters axially at section 1. Assuming incompressible flow at shaft angular velocity, derive a formula for the power P required to drive the impeller. Solution: Relative to the blade, the fluid exits at velocity Vrel, tangent to the blade, as shown in Fig. P But the Euler turbine formula, Ans. (a) from Example 3.18 of the text, Torque T Q(rVt r1v t1) Qr V (assuming V 0) t t1 involves the absolute fluid velocity tangential to the blade circle (see Fig. 3.15). To derive this velocity we need the velocity diagram shown above, where absolute exit velocity V is found by adding blade tip rotation speed r to Vrel,. With trigonometry, Q Vt r Vn cot, where Vn Q/Aexit is the normal velocity r b With torque T known, the power required is P T The final formula is: Q P Qrr cot Ans. rb Fig. P3.155

The flow discharges through a nozzle to the atmosphere Estimate the pump power in kw delivered to the water. Solution: Let 1 be at the reservoir surface and be at the nozzle exit, as shown. We need to know the exit velocity: 0/3600 m V Q/A 31.1, while V 1 0 (reservoir surface) (0.05) s Now apply the steady flow energy equation from (1) to (): f p p V z p V z h h, g g g g or: (31.1) /[(9.81)] 5 h, solve for h 56.4 m. p p The pump power P gqhp (998)(9.81)(0/3600)(56.4) W 33.7 kw Ans.

If the pump is 75 percent efficient, what horse-power is needed to drive it? Solution: First evaluate the average velocity in the pipe and the friction head loss: ft Q 3.34 ft (17.0) Q 3.34, so V 17.0 and h f 7 11 ft s A (3/1) s (3.)

(b) (c) If h is positive (as in the figure above), p1 is greater than it would be for no flow, because of head losses in the pipe. Thus, if h 0, flow is up from 1 to. Ans. (c) (d) If h is negative, p1 is less than it would be for no flow, because the head losses act against hydrostatics. Thus, if h 0, flow is down from to 1. Ans. (d) Note that h is a direct measure of flow, regardless of the angle of the pipe.
