2.1. c.
Given,

We use Eq. 2.1 from the textbook,

=

= 1 = 2.54
= 3 = 7.62
= 5.95 = 0.00595
= 2.5 =

2.5
= 0.1701
14.696
=

2
4

Using the values for the rest of the properties as provided, we get,
= 0.00396

2.2. c.
Given,

We use Eq. 2.1 from the textbook,

=

= 1.25 = 3.175
= 5 = 12.7
= 14 = 0.014
=

2
4

Using the values for the rest of the properties as provided and rearranging Eq. 2.1 to solve for pressure
drop, we get,
= 0.1565 = 0.1565 14.696 = 2.3

2.3. c.
Given,

We use Eq. 2.1 from the textbook,

=

= 1.1 = 2.794
= 2.7 = 6.858
= 8.5 =

8.5
= 0.5784
14.696
=

2
4

Using the values for the rest of the properties as provided and rearranging Eq. 2.1 to solve for
permeability, we get,
= 0.098 = 98
