The following system sends methyl alcohol (sg= 0.789, kinematic viscosity 1.27 x 10?? ft²/sec.) at a flowrate of 50 gpm through a cross section given below. The methyl alcohol flows out of the tank at a duct that has the cross section below. In this cross section, the methyl ethyl flows through the outer part of the inner tubes for a distance of 100 feet before it encounters a fluid motor. For this cross section, consider the cross section surface material to be smooth all the way.
a) Determine the Hydraulic Radius of the Cross section.
b) Determine the Reynold's number.
c) Determine the energy loss of the 100 feet cross section.
d) Determine the pressure at the inlet of the Fluid Motor.
e) If the pressure at the outlet of the fluid motor is 8 psig, determine the power removed from the fluid by the fluid motor.
f) If the fluid motor is connected to a electrical generator that is 75% efficient, determine the power of the electricity produced by the generator.
