Ex.

1 Given Data
Volume = 77 liters = 77 / 1000 m = 0.077 m
Temp. = 27 C = 300 K
P(g) =110 Kg / cm ;
Molar mass of N2 = 28 Kg / Kmol
Barometer reading = 765 mmHg
Specific gas constant Rs = Universal gas constant / Molar mass of gas
= 8.3143 / 28 KJ / Kg K
= 0.2969 KJ / Kg K
When barometer reads 765 mmHg,
the atmospheric pressure is = 765 * 1.033 / 760 Kg / cm
= 1.039 Kg / cm
Absolute Pressure = Gauge Pressure + atmospheric pressure
= 110 + 1.039 Kg / cm
= 111.039 Kg / cm
= 111.039 * 0.981 * 100 KPa
P V = m Rs T
So,
m = P V / Rs T
= 111.039 * 0.981 * 100 * 0.077
0.2969 * 300
= 9.416 Kgs.
Ex. 2

Given Data
Volume = 6 m ; Weight = 44 KN = 44000 N
1) Specific weight = weight / Volume
= 44 / 6 KN / m
= 7.33 KN / m
= 7330 N / m
2) Specific density = weight / Volume
= 44 * 1000 Kg / m
6 * 9.81
= 747.536 Kg / m
3) Specific Volume = 1 / density
= 1 / 747.536 m / Kg
= 1.33 * 10 ^ -3 m / Kg

4) Specific gravity = liquid density / Water density

= 747.536 / 1000
= 0.747
Ex. 3 Given Data
Power = 19.62 KW = 19620 W = 19620 N.m / sec.
Resistance Force = 1000 Kg = 9810 N
Power = Force * Velocity
So, Velocity = Power / Force
= 19620 / 9810 m / sec
= 2 m / sec
Ex. 4 Given Data
Pump HP = 5 HP
Flow = 2 m / sec.
1 Hp = 75 Kg.m / s So, 5 HP = 375 Kg.m / s
Hydraulic Power = Pressure * Discharge
Pressure = Hydraulic Power / Discharge
= 375
2
= 187.5 Kg./ m
