Textbook Question
Chapter 3, Problem 3.3P
Consider a venturi with a small hole drilled in the side of the throat. This hole is connected via a tube to a closed reservoir. The purpose of the venturi is to create a vacuum in the reservoir when the venturi is placed in an airstream. (The vacuum is defined as the pressure difference below the outside ambient pressure.) The venturi has a throat-to-inlet area ratio of 0.85. Calculate the maximum vacuum obtainable in the reservoir when the venturi is placed in an airstream of 90 m/s at standard sea level conditions.

In the system given below, the water taken from the A chamber is transmitted to the D chamber with the help of the pump at the C point. The power of the pump at the C point, the local loss coefficient due to the valve at the B point and other data are given in the table. How many meters (m) is the elevation difference between these two reservoirs? Hopper-Pipe connections are sharp (90⁰ junction). Note: The Colebrook-White equation will be used in the solution. Kinematic viscosity value will be taken as 1.13x10-6 m2 / s.

- STELIA Aerospace are planning to design a spherical cryogenic tank to be stored with liquid hydrogen. It is also designed with a system that if the tank reaches maximum capacity all entry and exit nozzles will automatically be closed. The specific gravity of this fluid is approximately seven hundredths the density of water. The tank is designed to have two-entry filtration system and an exit nozzle located at the bottom. The liquid hydrogen flows into the cryogenic tank at a rate of 0.85 kilograms per second and 0.75 kilograms per second. At the same time the exit nozzle is opened with a rate of 0.005 kilograms per second. (a)The shutoff valves were closed after 35 minutes, what is the volume and radius of the spherical tank?

A hinged valve in the centre of the square pipe prevents the fluid in both vats from mixing. The valve door is square and has a cross sectional area of L X L, and the hinge is at the top of the door. The fluid depth in the first tank is h1 and the depth in the second tank is h2. The fluid in Vat 1 exerts a horizontal force, F1, on the valve door when it is closed. Express F1 in terms of h1. The fluid in Vat 1 exerts a Moment M1 on the valve door (acting about the hinge at the top of the door) when it is closed. Express M1 in terms of h1. Considering the fluid in both vat1 and vat2, express the net moment on the door in terms of h1 and h2 when it is closed. If the valve can withstand a moment of Mmax before opening, find the maximum possible height difference between the fluid in vats 1 and 2.arrow_forward
