Chemical Engineering Fluid Mechanics. Ron Darby u UUUUL) 26. A gas bubble of diameter d rises with velocity V in a liquid of density p and viscosity u. (a) Determine the dimensionless groups that include the effects of all the significant variables, in such a form that the liquid viscosity appears in only one group. Note that the driving force for the bubble motion is buoy- ancy, which is equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. (b) You want...
1.) Find the terminal velocity (in m/s) of a spherical bacterium (diameter 1.94 µm) falling in water. You will first need to note that the drag force is equal to the weight at terminal velocity. Take the density of the bacterium to be 1.10 ✕ 103 kg/m3. (Assume the viscosity of water is 1.002 ✕ 10−3 kg/(m · s).
A spherical raindrop 3.3 mm in diameter falls through a vertical distance of 4000 m. Take the cross-sectional area of a raindrop ,drag coefficient 0.45, density of water to be 1000 kg/m3, and density of air to be 1.2 kg/m3. (a) Calculate the speed a spherical raindrop would achieve falling from 4000 m in the absence of air drag 280 m/s (b) What would its speed be at the end of 4000 m when there is air drag? 1.091 What...
I would like a step by step solution please. Calculate the terminal velocity of two steel balls falling through water. The diameters of the two balls are a) cm and b)10cm. Also calculate the Reynolds number for the 10cm sphere. The forces acting on each sphere are gravity, buoyancy and drag Setting up the force equation mg At terminal velocity, the acceleration is zero, as is the net force.

A U-tube contains liquid of unknown density. An oil of density 770 kg/m³ is poured into one arm of the tube until the oil column is 13.5 cm high. The oil-air interface is then 4.5 cm above the liquid level in the other arm of the U-tube. Find the density of the liquid. A raft is made of 11 logs lashed together. Each is 38.0 cm in diameter and has a length of 7.00 m. How many people (whole number)...
Part 1 How fast do small water droplets of 0.23 um (23 x 108 m) diameter fall through the air under standard sea-level conditions? Assume the drops do not evaporate. Repeat the problem for standard conditions at 5000-m altitude. (a) For the condition that the droplets are falling at a constant velocity, what is the relation between the weight ofa drop W, the buoyancy force Fe, and the drag force F? (b) What is the expression for the weight of...
I need the best solution for these 2 questions on the section " Check your learning" (10.4 and 10.5) to prepare my exam in class. Thank you so much for helping me Y althlon tai sok Translate Gm arch this book O Back Figure 10.20 Depending upon the relative strengths of adhesive and cohesive forces, a liquid may rise (such as water) or fall (such as mercury) in a glass capillary tube.

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
