MAE130B Concept/Question/Comments Film: Channel Flow of a Compressible Fluid Due Date: March 15‚ 2013 Concept 1: Choking Choking occurs when the Mach number at the throat of a channel flow is equal to one. Conceptually choking is the phenomena where the flow in a channel transitions to sonic flow. Due to the conditions of choking‚ the velocity‚ density‚ and pressure can increase or decrease continuously through a sonic throat‚ and the flow does not need to be symmetrical. Another notable phenomena

MEHB221 Fluids Mechanics Lab 2014 Experiment No. 5 HEAD LOSS DUE TO PIPE FRICTION Objective To verify that Darcy-Weisbach equation can be used to predict the head loss due to friction with flow of water through a smooth bore pipe. Apparatus Fluid Friction Apparatus‚ FM100. Hydraulic Bench‚ FM110. Summary of theory For water flowing through a circular pipe‚ the head loss due to the friction can be calculated using Darcy-Weisbach equation. h = 4fLu2 2gd Or h = λLu2 2gd Where L = length of pipe

OK 73019 Dr. Nollert‚ The experiment performed was Experiment IV: Fluid Flow Meters and Tray Hydraullics. The group was composed of Alex Long‚ Khanh Ho‚ Tricia Heitmann and myself. The first day of experimentation was April 16‚ 2013. On this day‚ Alex and I ran the sieve tray apparatus to study the vapor and liquid tray hydraulics parameters for sieve type crossflow distillation trays. Tricia and Khanh ran the fluid flow apparatus to determine the operating characteristics of the Venturi

Midterm Exam II Solution‚ ME 342 Fluid Mechanics (Spring 2013) 1. Consider a steady‚ incompressible‚ y=+h b viscous flow of viscosity due to y a pressure gradient x inside a channel of two fixed u=u(y) plates at a distance of 2h‚ as shown in the figure. Neglect a gravity effect. The channel width y=h b is W and it is very long compared to the channel length L (i.e.‚ W>>L) so that it is still valid to assume that the channel flow is a two-dimensional plane flow ( ) and an axial flow (v = w = 0)

Tutorial 5&6: 1. A trickling filter has a diameter of 20 m and a depth of 2.5 m. It is operated with a direct recirculation ratio of 1.0‚ and the influent sewage flow rate is 3 ML/d. Influent BOD to the primary tank is 200 mg/L‚ and the BOD removal efficiency in that tank is 35 percent. Compute the organic load on the trickling filter. 2. A grit of specific gravity 2.8 flows into a grit chamber‚ 1.5-m wide‚ 10.5-m long and 2.5-m deep. The flow-rate of wastewater into the chamber is 2 m3/s.

Critical pressure (Pc) is a pressure above which the substance can no longer exist as a gas no matter how high the temperature is raised. A supercritical fluid is any substance that is above its Tc & Pc [critical point]. CRITICAL POINT In other
