(choose chapter or problem)

In a laboratory experiment, air at 208C fl ows from a large tank through a 2-cm-diameter smooth pipe into a sea-level atmosphere, as in Fig. P6.149. The fl ow is metered by a long-radius nozzle of 1-cm diameter, using a manometer with Meriam red oil (SG 5 0.827). The pipe is 8 m long. The measurements of tank pressure and manometer height are as follows: ptank, Pa(gage): 60 320 1200 2050 2470 3500 4900 hmano, mm: 6 38 160 295 380 575 820 Use these data to calculate the fl ow rates Q and Reynolds numbers ReD and make a plot of measured fl ow rate versus tank pressure. Is the fl ow laminar or turbulent? Compare the data with theoretical results obtained from the Moody chart, including minor losses. Discuss. Air tank pgage pa = 1 atm 8 m h
