During a trip to the beach (Patm = 1 atm = 101.325 kPa), a car runs out of gasoline, and it becomes necessary to siphon gas out of the car of a Good Samaritan. The siphon is a small-diameter hose, and to start the siphon it is necessary to insert one siphon end in the full gas tank, fill the hose with gasoline via suction, and then place the other end in a gas can below the level of the gas tank. The difference in pressure between point 1 (at the free surface of the gasoline in the tank) and point 2 (at the outlet of the tube) causes the liquid to flow from the higher to the lower elevation. Point 2 is located 0.75 m below point 1 in this case, and point 3 is located 2 m above point 1. The siphon diameter is 5 mm, and frictional losses in the siphon are to be disregarded. Determine (a) the minimum time to withdraw 4 L of gasoline from the tank to the can and (b) the pressure at point 3. The density of gasoline is 750 kg/m3. Answer: Δt = 53.1 s, P3 = 81.1 kPa

- A local ventilation system (a hood and duct system) is used to remove air and contaminants from a pharmaceutical lab (Fig. 1). The inner diameter (ID) of the duct is 129 mm, its average roughness is 0.15 mm, and its total length is L = 24.5 m. There are three elbows along the duct, each with a minor loss coefficient of 0.21. Literature from the hood manufacturer lists the hood entry loss coefficient as 3.3 based on duct velocity. When the damper is fully open, its loss coefficient is 1.8. The minor loss coefficient through the 90° tee is 0.36. Finally, a one-way valve is installed to prevent contaminants from a second hood from flowing “backward” into the room. The minor loss coefficient of the (open) one-way valve is 6.6. The performance data of the fan fit a parabolic curve of the form Havailable = H0 - aV2, where shutoff head H0 = 60.0 mm of water column, coefficient a = 2.50 x 10-7 mm of water column per (Lpm)2 ,available head Havailable is in units of mm of water column, and…arrow_forwardExamples & The Inlet to pump is 10.50m above the bottom of sump from which it draw water through a suction pipe.
