- Consider the attached figure, which includes an illustration of the proposed orifice plate meter. The piping is Nominal 2 in Schedule 40, the orifice plate radius is 0.5″ in, and the plate itself is 0.5″ thick. Flow goes left to right, and to measure pressure losses during flow you will install a differential pressure sensor along the length that will measure the pressure losses. One port for the differential sensor will be placed 4″ upstream (P1) and the other port will be placed 15″ downstream (P3). The distance between the ports will be 19.5″. The ports will be flush with the inner pipe wall so we can assume the pressure measured is the fluid pressure at the wall of the pipe. 1. If the fluid (viscosity = 0.001 Pa·s and density = 1200 kg/m3) flows at 1 gpm, estimate thepressure lost over the 19.5″ span with the orifice plate in place. Estimate CD from the second figure and do not neglect pipe friction. 2.

A large artery in a person's body can be approximated by a tube of diameter 9 mm and length 0.35 m. Also assume that blood has a viscosity of approximately 4 x 10-3 N s/m2, a specific grav- ity of 1.0, and that the pressure at the beginning of the artery is equiv- alent to 120 mm Hg. If the flow were steady (it is not) with V = 0.2 m/s, determine the pressure at the end of the artery if it is ori- ented (a) vertically up (flow up) or (b) horizontal.arrow_forward
