Problem The relation between pressure drop and flow rate of laminar flows in a pipe is given by l bar 50 m 20° 128u dz PS Flow rate Q is the product of the average velocity and the cross-sectional area of the pipe What is the pressure needed to drive a viscous oil flow upslope through a 12 cm diameter pipe? The length of the pipe is 50 meters. The slope is 20°. At the end of the pipe, the...
Hydrodynamic losses in pipe flow are characterized by measuring the pressure drop over a length of pipe L. If you anticipate using flow rates of 1.0 gals/min through 3/8" i.d. smooth-wall tubing, and want a pressure drop of 12 kPa, what length, L, of tubing should you use? Express your answer in meters. Note: You will note that this problem statement uses mixed units, which unfortunately are a fact of life in engineering calculations. You should know how to do...

Water flows at speed of 6 m/s through a horizontal pipe of diameter 3.5 cm. The gauge pressure P1 of the water in the pipe is 1.7 atm. A short segment of the pipe is constricted to a smaller diameter of 2.4 cm . What is the gauge pressure of the water flowing through the constricted segment? Atmospheric pressure is 1.013 × 10^5 Pa. The density of water is 1000 kg/m^3 . The viscosity of water is negligible. Answer in...
