Two vessels in which the difference of surface levels is maintained constant at 2.4 m are connected by a 75 mm diameter pipeline 15 m long. If the frictional coefficient f may be taken as 0.008, determine the volume rate of flow.

Step 1
4 m. This means that the pressure difference driving the flow is due to this height difference. We can calculate this pressure difference using the formula for pressure in a fluid column: P = ρgh, where ρ is the density of the fluid (we'll assume water, so ρ = 1000 Show more…

A pressure difference of 6.00×10^4 Pa is required to maintain a volume flow rate of 0.800 m^3/s for a viscous fluid flowing through a section of cylindrical pipe that has a radius of 0.190 m. What pressure difference is required to maintain the same volume flow rate if the radius of the pipe is decreased to 0.0900 m?

Two large reservoirs are connected through a circular pipe of 1.2m diameter. The reservoirs are separated by a distance of 3.0km. The difference in height of water between the two reservoirs is 25m. Determine the volume flow rate and the mass flow rate of water through the pipe when the gate valves are opened such that the two reservoirs are interconnected. Assume the coefficient of friction as f = 0.015 and H=(4.f.L.V2)/2gd.

A pressure difference of 6.00 * 10^4 Pa is required to maintain a volume flow rate of 0.800 m3/s for a viscous fluid flowing through a section of cylindrical pipe that has radius 0.210 m. What pressure difference is required to maintain the same volume flow rate if the radius of the pipe is decreased to 0.0700 m?
