Question

Tomato juice is flowing through a 3.81-cm I.D. smooth plastic pipe ($\epsilon = 0.0015$ mm) at a velocity of 2 m/s. The viscosity and density of the tomato juice are 8 Pa$\cdot$s and 1050 kg/m$^3$, respectively. Assuming the pipe is horizontal, estimate the pressure drop for each 100-m of pipe. Express your answer in kPa/100-m.

Step 1

We have: - Inner diameter of the pipe, $D = 3.81$ cm $= 0.0381$ m - Roughness of the pipe, $\epsilon = 0.0015$ mm $= 0.0000015$ m - Velocity of the fluid, $v = 2$ m/s - Viscosity of the fluid, $\mu = 8$ Pa $\cdot$ s - Density of the fluid, $\rho = 1050$ kg/m$^3$ - Show more…
