Problem 22 Situation: A water tower has a storage tank whose shape can be considered equivalent to a sphere with a diameter of 50 [ft]. The tank is in a windy area with average winds of 30 [mi/h] and gusts reaching 100 [mi/h]. At 20 [°C], the viscosity of air is 0.017 [cP] and its kinematic viscosity is 15.05 [cSt]. Requirements: Please, estimate the force of the average winds and gusty winds on the tank at about 20 [°C]. Express your answer in [kN] and [lb]. Assume you can extend the graph or equations (except Ans.: 5.8 [kN]; 1305 [lb] 64 [kN]; 14,470 [b] creeping flow equation) up to Reynolds numbers of 50,000,000.

Pierrot the trekker was travelling 12.0 [km], 30.0° S of E, then 15.0 [km], 45.0° N of E, and then 9.00 [km], 30.0° E of N. At the end of this trek, he realized that in the last leg he should have travelled 16.0 [km], 60.0° N of Winstead of the third path he originally took. Having found treasure, Pierrot called for an airlift. The airlift is located 80.0 [km], S, from his initial position. In magnitude-bearing form, determine the path the airlift must take to reach Pierrot.Magnitude:Angle in degrees:Direction: The aircraft took a detour by travelling 50.0 [km], 30.0° S of W from its original location, to a gas station.

An ideal gas flows through a horizontal tube at steady state. No heat is added, and no shaft work is done. The cross-sectional area of the tube changes with length and this causes the velocity to change.

The life (L) of a radially loaded spherical ball bearing can be estimated from equation (2) given below. Experimental testing of the mechanism has detemined that the average radial load that the bearing will be subjected to is F = 8.34 [kN] based on 6 repetitions of the test. If the rated load of the bearing is C = 8.25 [kN] and the life (in number of revolutions) at the rated load is given as LR = 9 x 107 [rev], determine the expected life of the bearing in revolutions [rev] and determine the total uncertainty of that result at 95% probability.

A freezer with dimensions of 4 m wide, 7 m long and 3 m high is under construction. The walls and ceiling are composed of 1.7 mm stainless steel (k = 15 W / [m ° C]), 10 cm thick foam insulation (k = 0.036 W / [m ° C]), a specific thickness of corkboard (k = 0.043 W / [m ° C]), and 1.27 cm thick wood (k = 0.104 W / [m ° C]). The inside of the freezer is maintained at -35 ° C. The ambient air outside the freezer is 32 ° C. The convective heat transfer coefficient is 5 W / (m K) on wooden walls and 2 W / (m² K) on stainless steel surfaces. If the outside air has a dew point of 29 ° C, calculate the thickness of the corkboard insulation that will prevent moisture condensation on the outer walls of the freezer.
