Answer #1

This is a case of Fanno Flow. Write the differential equation for Fanno flow

For air, k=1.4, f=0.024, D=2cm. Substituting these values,

Separate variables

Substitute

Separate to partial fractions on LHS

Integrate between limits

Substitute , and

This is the length required to accelerate from M=0.1 to M=0.5

Substitute , and (In the problem M_2=0.5, and M_3=1)

This is the additional length required to accelerate from M=0.5 to M=0.1

Air Under standard conditions flows through a 4.0.mm diameter down tubing with an average velocity of V=50 m/s. For such conditions the flow would normally be turbulent. However, if precautions are taken to eliminate disturbance to the flow (the entrance to the tube is very smooth, the air is dust free, the tube does not vibrate, etc) it may be possible to maintain laminar flow. Find (a). Determine the pressure drop in 0.1.m section of the tube if the flow...
