1. Water flows in a pipe of diameter 10 cm.

If the velocity of the

flow is 0.1 m/s, what is the entrance length? What percentage
change will be there in the entrance length is the flow velcoity is
2 m/s. Take kinematic viscosity of water as 10-6 m2/s
2. For a fully developed laminar pipe flow using F = ma, derive the
expression for flow rate Q in terms of the pressure drop.
3. A 38.1-mm-diameter, 0.0245-N table tennis ball is released from
the bottom of a swimming pool. With what velocity does it rise to
the surface? Assume it has reached its terminal velocity.
4. For laminar flow in a round pipe of diameter D, at what
distancefrom the centerline is the actual velocity equal to the
average velocity?
5. Derive an expression for Volumetric flow in Pipes as a function of
pressure drop using Dimensional Analysis
6. Water, assumed incompressible, flows steadily through the
round pipe in Fig. 1. The entrance velocity is constant, u = U_0,
and the exit velocity approximates turbulent flow, u = u_max
〖(1 - r/R)〗^(1/7). Determine the ratio U_0 /u_max for this
flow.
7. A shaft having a diameter of 50 mm rotates centrally in a journal
bearing having a diameter of 50 mm and length 100 mm. The
annular spacing between the shaft and the bearing is filled with
oil having viscosity of 1 Poise. Determine the power absorbed in
the bearing when the speed of rotation if 60 rpm.
8. A ball weighing 0.02-N and diameter 5 cm is released from the
bottom of a swimming pool. With what velocity does it rise to the
surface? Assume it has reached its terminal velocity.
9. For a fully developed laminar pipe flow using F = ma, derive the
expression for flow rate Q in terms of the pressure drop.
10. A laminar flow takes place in a pipe of diameter 200 mm. The
maximum velocity is 1.5 m/s. Find the mean velocity and the
radius at which this occurs. Also calculate the velocity at 4 cm
distance from the wall of the pipe.
11. A venturimeter is a carefully designed constriction whose
pressure difference is a measure of the flow rate in a pipe. Derive
an expression for the flow rate Q.
12. For laminar flow in a round pipe of diameter D, at what distance
from the centerline is the actual velocity equal to the average
velocity? Derive the necessary equations.
