Unfiltered olive oil must flow at a minimum speed of 3.0 m/s to prevent settling of debris in a pipe. The oil leaves a pump at a pressure of 91 kPa through a pipe of radius 9.9 mm. It then enters a horizontal pipe at atmospheric pressure. Ignore the effects of viscosity.

a.) What is the speed of the oil as it leaves the pump if it flows at 3.0 m/sm/s in the horizontal pipe?

b.) What is the radius of the horizontal pipe?

The oil flows in a vertical pipe that has overall height of 30 m. The pressure at the inlet of the pipe (before the pump) and at the location of oil delivery at the end of the pipe are both atmospheric. Determine: 1- The head supplied to the flow by the pump. 2- The pressure at the exit of the pump. 2- The pressure at midway location of the pipe between    inlet and exit. Oil viscosity and density are...

A tank with a large cross-sectional area contains motor oil of density 889kg/m^3 and a depth of 1.2m. The top of the tank is open to the atmosphere. A narrow horizontal pipe of radius 1.6mm and length 1.0m leaves the tank at the bottom. Determine the average speed of the oil flowing in the pipe if: a) the viscosity of the oil is neglected b) the viscosity (0.17Pas) is included

A bathtub spigot in a top floor apartment lies 20 m above street level, where water is pumped into the apartment building. The pipe that leads into the building has an inner radius of 0.57 cm , which tapers to 0.40 cm at the bathtub spigot opening. The speed of the water leaving the spigot is 12 m/s . (The density of water is 1000 kg/m 3 .) Assume the water flows without viscosity. (a) What is the speed of...
