L 2. Steady statemass balance: Water is flowing at steady state in a 0.1 meter-diameter pipe with a maximum velocity (turbulent profile) of 0.3 meters/sec. The pipe then goes through an expansion, to where it is then flowing in a 0.5 meter-diameter pipe, and the flow regime has changed from turbulent to laminar. In the second section of pipe, calculate the velocity as (a) block flow profile (Vavg), and (b) maximum velocity in laminar flow profile? HINT: you will need...

thermaldynamics and fluid mechanics Question 4 An orifice plate flow meter, as shown in figure Q4, is situated in a horizontal pipe of 95 cm diameter (d) in which water flows. The pressure difference between the vena contracta and flow upstream at point 1 is measured using a differential manometer. The diameter of the sharp-edged orifice (d.) is 35 cm. The coefficient of discharge for the flow meter is 0.7, and the coefficient of contraction is 0.62. Assume the density...
