A horizontal pipe of diameter 0.985 m has a smooth constriction to a section of diameter 0.591 m . the density of oil flowing in the pipe is 821 kg/m3 . if the pressure in the pipe is 8100 n/m2 and in the constricted section is 6075 n/m2 , what is the rate at which oil is flowing

Respuesta :

ρgh is the gravitational component of Bernoulli's equation 
the pipe is horizontal 
so no change in h 
ρgh is equal on both sides 
cancels out 
now 
v (velocity) is inversely proportional to square of radius 
so 
v_2 / v_1 = (r_1 )^2 / (r_2)^2 = 1.1^2 / 0.66^2 = 2.78 
v_2 = 2.78 v_2 
and 
8130 N/m² + ((821 kg/m³) * (v_1)²)/2 = 6097.5 N/m² + ((821 kg/m³) * (2.78v_1)²)/2 
solve for v_1 
then 
R = 2 pi (1.1)^2 * v_1

The rate of flow of oil in pipe has been 1.55 m/s.

Given,

The diameter of pipe, [tex]d = 0.985 \;\rm m[/tex]

The diameter of constriction, [tex]d' = 0.591\rm m[/tex]

The radius of horizontal pipe, [tex]r = 0.4925 \rm \;m[/tex]

The radius of constriction, [tex]r' = 0.2955 \;\rm m[/tex]

The density of oil, [tex]\rho = 821\;\rm kg/m^3[/tex]

Pressure in the pipe, ⁣[tex]P = 8100 \;\rm N/m^2[/tex]

Pressure at the constriction, [tex]P' = 6075\;\rm N/m^2[/tex]

Let v is the velocity of fluid in the pipe, and v' is the velocity of fluid at the constriction.

Computation for the rate of flow of oil

The equation of continuity has been given as:

[tex]r^2v=r'^2v'[/tex]

Substituting the values in the equation for relation of velocity as:

[tex](0.4925)^2v=(0.2955)v'\\0.2425v=0.0873v'\\v=0.36v'[/tex]

The relation between v and v’ has been [tex]v=0.36v'[/tex].

The Bernoulli’s equation for pressure has been given as:

[tex]P\;+\;\dfrac{1}{2} \rho v^2=P'\;+\;\dfrac{1}{2}\rho 'v'^2[/tex]

Substituting the values in equation as:

[tex]8100\;+\;\dfrac{1}{2} \;\times 821\;\times (0.36v')^2=6075\;+\;\dfrac{1}{2}\;\times 821\;\times v'^2\\2025\;+\;53.2\;v'^2=410.5v'^2\\2025=3565.8v'^2\\v'^2=5.675[/tex]

The velocity of oil in constricted pipe is 5.675 m/s.

The velocity of oil in horizontal pipe has been:

[tex]v=0.36v'\\v=0.36\;\times\;5.675\\v=2.04[/tex]

The velocity of oil in horizontal pipe has been 2.04 m/s.

The rate of flow (R) of oil has been given as:

[tex]R=\pi r^2v[/tex]

Substituting the values for rate of flow of oil in horizontal pipe:

[tex]R=3.14\;\times\;(0.4925)^2\times\;2.04\\R=1.55\;\rm m/s[/tex]

The rate of flow of oil in horizontal pipe is 1.55 m/s.

The rate of flow in constriction has been:

[tex]R=3.14\;\times\;(0.2955)^2\times\;5.675\\R=1.55\;\rm m/s[/tex]

The rate of flow of oil in pipe has been 1.55 m/s.
