5. A duct of 0.45 m diameter and 90 m long leads from a fan discharge chamber where the pressure is15 mm of water to a plenum chamber where the pressure is 10 mm of water.In order to increase the flow, two alternatives are considered. One is to lay a duct of 0.3 m diameterand 90 m long in parallel with the duct of 0.45 m diameter. The other is to increase the diameter of0.45 m diameter duct for the last 60 m length. Calculate the increased diameter so that this methodgives the same flow as the 0.45 m and 0.3 m ducts in parallel. Assume that the pressures in the fanchamber and plenum chamber are unaffected by changes in the flow and consider duct friction lossesonly. The friction factor may be taken as 0.0o55.6. A 0.3 m diameter circular duct carries standard air at a velocity of 360 m/min. It is replaced by arectangular duct having the same pressure loss per unit length due to friction. Determine thedimensions of the rectangular duct if the aspect ratio is to be 1.5 for (a) the same volume flowthrough the two ducts, and (b) the same velocity in the two ducts.[Ans. 0.567 m1[Ans, 0.336 m, 0.224 m: 0.375 m, 0.25 m 17. A fan delivers air at 8 m/s to the main line of air conditioning duct. After a straight run of10 m, a branch of 4 m length delivers air to a room with 2 m'/s. Another branch after a 5 m furtherrun is taken from the main branch. This branch is 5 m in length and delivers 3 m'/s. The main branchruns straight for another 5 m and then turns by 90° and runs for another 5 m length and delivers 3 m/s of air.

C2. A conical tube is fixed vertically with its smaller end upwards and it forms a part of the pipeline. The velocity at the smaller end is 4.9 m/s and at the larger end is 2.5 m/s. The length of the conical tube is 1.3 m and the flow rate of the water is 127 liters/s. The pressure at the smaller end is equivalent to a head of 10.1 m of water. Considering the following two cases: (1) Neglecting friction, (without head loss) determine (i) the diameter at the smaller end in meter, (ii) the diameter at the larger end in meter, and (ii) the pressure at the larger end of the tube in m of water. (2) If a head loss (with head loss)in the tube,h = 0.0153(V1-V2)2, where V1 is the velocity at the smaller end and V2 is the velocity at the larger end, determine (iv) the head loss in m of water and (v) the pressure at the larger end of the tube in m of water. 6) the diameter at the smaller end in meter (ii) the diameter at the larger end in meter (iii) the pressure head at the larger end of the…

A Process fluid is pumped from the bottom of one distillation column to another, using a centrifugal pump. The line is a standard commercial steel pipe with a 75 mm internal diameter. From the column to the pump inlet the line is 25 m long and contains six standard elbows and a fully open gate valve From the pump outlet to the second column, the line is 250 m long and contains ten standard elbows, and four gate valves (operated fully open). The fluid level in the first column is 4 m above the pump inlet. The feed point of the second column is 6 m above the pump inlet. The operating pressure in the first column is 1.05 bara and that of the second column is 0.3 barg. (i) Draw the system, (ii) determine the operating point on the pump characteristic curve.

Consider a hydraulic jack being used in a car repair shop, as in Fig. The pistons have an area of A1 = 0.8 cm2 and A2 = 0.04 m2. Hydraulic oil with a specific gravity of 0.870 is pumped in as the small piston on the left side is pushed up and down, slowly raising the larger piston on the right side. A car that weighs 13,000 N is to be jacked up. (a) At the beginning, when both pistons are at the same elevation (h = 0), calculate the force F1 in newtons required to hold the weight of the car. (b) Repeat the calculation after the car has been lifted two meters (h = 2 m). Compare and discuss

A "spa tub" is to be designed to replace bath tubs in reno- vations. There are to be 6 outlet nozzles, each with a di- ameter of 12 mm, and each should have an outlet velocity of 12 m/s. What is the required flow rate from the single pump that supplies all of these nozzles? If there is one suction line leading to the pump, what is the minimum diameter to limit the velocity at the inlet of the pump to 2.5 m/s?
4- A centrifugal pump was tested for cavitation initiation. Total head was 40 m and flow rate were 0.06 m/s. Cavitation started when the total head at the suction side was 3 m. The atmospheric pressure was 760 mm Hg and the vapor pressure at this temperature was 2 kPa. It was proposed to install the pump where the atmospheric pressure is 700 mm Hg and the vapor pressure at the location temperature is 1 kPa. If the pump develops the same total head and flow, can the pump be fixed as the same height as the lab setup? What should be the new height.
