Chapter 7, Problem 102P
A liquid delivery system is being designed such that ethylene glycol flows out of a hole in the bottom of a large tank, as in Fig. P7-100. The designers need to predict how long it will take for the ethylene glycol to completely drain. Since it would be very expensive to run tests with a full-scale prototype using ethylene glycol, they decide to build a one-quarter scale model for experimental testing, and they plan to use water as their test liquid. The model is geometrically similar to the prototype (Fig. P7-102). (a) The temperature of the ethylene glycol in the prototype tank is 60°C. at which

Problem 2
In an experiment conducted in a laboratory, the surface tension (Y)
acting on a rotating square plate in a viscous fluid is a function of the external torque (t),
plate length (a), area moment of inertia of plate (I), specific weight of the fluid (Y) and
angular displacement of the plate (0). Using Buckingham-Pi theorem, find a suitable set of pi
terms (in M, L and T primary dimensions). Your final answer should be written in proper
functional form. Refer Table 5.1/ page-296 for secondary dimension of the variables.
EXAMPLE Leaking Tank. Outflow of Water Through a Hole (Torricelli's Law)
This is another prototype engineering problem that leads to an ODE. It concerns the outflow of water from a
cylindrical tank with a hole at the bottom. You are asked to find the height of the water in the tank at any time
if the tank has diameter 2 m, the hole has diameter 1 cm, and the initial height of the water when the hole is
opened is 2.25 m. When will the tank be empty?

- The wind flutter on the wing of a newly proposed jet fighter is given by the following 1st order differential equation: With the Boundary Condition: y(0) = 1 (remember this means that y = 1 when x = 0) Determine the vertical motion (y) in terms of the span (x) of the wing. The frequency of fluctuations of the wing at mach 2 is given by the non-homogenous 2nd order differential equation: With the boundary conditions: y(0) = 1 and y(1) = 0 (i.e., y = 1 when x = 0 and y = 0 when x = 1) By solving the homogenous form of this equation, complete the analysis and determine the amplitude (y) of vibration of the wing tip at mach 2.

However there is no fluid with zero viscosity in the world except some peculiar fluid at very low temperature. Bernoulli equation or inviscid flow theory is still a very important branch of fluid dynamics for the following reasons: (i) (ii) There is wide region of flow where the velocity gradient is zero and so the viscous effect does not manifest itself, such as in external flow past an un- stalled aerofoil. The conservation of useful energy allows the conversion of kinetic and potential energy to pressure and hence pressure force acting normal to the control volume or system boundary even though the tangential friction stress is absent. It allows the estimation of losses in internal pipe flow.

- A small low-speed wind tunnel is designed to calibrate hot wires (anemometer wires) (Figure 2). The air temperature is 19 OC. The test section of the wind tunnel is 30 cm in diameter and 30 cm in height. The flow through the test section must be as uniform as possible. The speed range of the wind tunnel varies from 1 M/s to 8 M/S, and the design will be optimized with an airspeed of V= 4.0 M / s in the test section. For a flow state at a speed of 4.0 m/S, which is almost uniform at the entrance to the test section, how fast does the air velocity on the tunnel axis accelerate to the end of the test section?Note: kinematic viscosity of air at 19 C ν=1. 507x10-5 m2 / sarrow_forwardI need help calculating these values using the defined quantites: Fin using the given values (remember its units are m3/hour) the mass flux of water of the inlet stream E from the given values (make sure that it is in the correct units!)
