Ethanol at 20°C flows at 0.008 m³/s through a horizontal cast iron (ε = 0.26 mm) pipe with L = 12 m and d = 5 cm. Neglecting entrance effects, estimate (a) the pressure gradient dp/dx, (b) the wall shear stress Tw, and (c) the percentage reduction in friction factor if the pipe walls are polished to a smooth surface. Ethanol properties at 20 °C: p= 789 kg/m³, μ = 0.0012 kg/m.s

The present pumping rate of North Slope crude oil through the Alaska Pipeline is about 600,000 barrels per day (1 barrel = 0.159 m3), pipe diameter is 48 inches. What would be the maximum rate if the flow were constrained to be transitional? Assume that Alaskan crude oil fits Fig. A.1 of the Appendix at 60°C. From Fig. A.1 for crude at 60°C, p= 0.86(1000) = 860 kg/m3 and u = 0.0040 kg/m-s. Take note that the maximum Turbulent Reynolds number is about 4000.

Compare the frictional pressure drop, due to skin friction, of air and water for a smooth circular pipe of inside diameter D and length L. For this comparison, consider the mass flow rate of air to be equal to the mass flow rate of water [Ans.: Using the McAdams’ correlation for f we find, ∆Pa/∆Pw = (ρw/ρa)1.2].
