Example 1 - The Continuity Equation In the Fig below the inside diameters of the pipe at sections 1 and 2 are 50 mm and 100 mm
respectively. Water at 70℃ is flowing with an average velocity of 8.0 m/s at section 1. Calculate
the velocity at section 2.

Example 2 - Flow Rate, Pipe Size, Flow Velocity
Determine the maximum allowable volume flow rate in L/min that can be carried through a
standard steel tube with an OD of 32 mm and a 1.5 mm wall thickness if the maximum velocity
is to be 3.0 m/s.

Example 3 - Conservation of Energy – Bernoulli’s Equation
In Fig below, water at 10℃ is flowing from section 1 to section 2. At section 1, which is 25 mm
in diameter, the gage pressure is 345 kPa and the velocity of flow is 3.0 m/s. Section 2, which is
50 mm in diameter, is 2.0 m above section 1. Assuming there are no energy losses in the system,
calculate the pressure 𝑝2.
List the items that are known from the problem statement:
𝐷1 = 25 𝑚𝑚; v1 = 3𝑚/𝑠; 𝑧2 − 𝑧1 = 2.0𝑚
𝐷2 = 50 𝑚𝑚; 𝑝1 = 345 𝑘𝑃𝑎𝑔
The pressure 𝑝2 is to be found.
We are going to use Bernoulli’s equation to solve the problem.

Example 4 - Torricelli’s Theorem
For the tank shown in Fig below, compute the velocity of the flow from the nozzle and the
volume flow rate for a range of depth from 3.0 m to 0.5 m in steps of 0.50 m. The diameter of the
jet at the nozzle is 50 mm.

Example 5 - General Energy Equation
Water flows from a large reservoir at the rate of 1.2 ft3/s through a pipe system as shown in Fig
below. Calculate the total amount of energy lost from the system because of the valve, the
elbows, the pipe entrance and fluid friction.
Using an approach similar to that used with Bernoulli’s equation, select two sections of interest
and write the general energy equation.
The sections at which we know the most information about pressure, velocity, and elevation are
the surface of the reservoir and the free stream of fluid at the exit of the pipe. Call these section 1
and section 2, respectively. Then, the complete general energy equation is:

The value of some of these items is zero. Determine which are zero and simplify the energy
equation accordingly.
The value of the following terms is zero:
𝑝1 = 0 Surface of the reservoir exposed to the atmosphere.
𝑝2 = 0 Free stream of fluid exposed to the atmosphere
v1 = 0 (Approximately) surface area of reservoir is large
ℎ𝐴 = ℎ𝑅 = 0 No mechanical device in the system
Then the energy equation becomes
𝑧1 − ℎ𝐿 = 𝑧2 +v2

Because we are looking for the total energy lost from the system, solve the equation for ℎ𝐿.

Example 6 - Reynolds Number
Determine whether the flow is laminar or turbulent if glycerine at 25 ℃ flows in a circular
passage within a fabricated chemical processing device. The diagram of the passage is 150 mm.
The average velocity of flow is 3.6 m/s.
Solution:
We must first evaluate the Reynold’s number:
𝑁𝑅 =v𝐷𝜌
𝜂
v = 3.6m/s
𝐷 = 0.15𝑚
𝜌 = 1258 𝑘𝑔/𝑚3 (given)
𝜂 = 9.60 × 10−1𝑃𝑎. 𝑠 (given)
Then we have:
𝑁𝑅 =v𝐷𝜌
𝜂= 708 <2000
Therefore, the flow is laminar

Solution:
ENGR 292 Midterm Review

First we must determine whether the flow is laminar or turbulent by evaluating the Reynolds
number:
𝑁𝑅 =v𝐷𝜌
𝜂
𝜌 = 1258 𝑘𝑔/𝑚3 (given)
𝜂 = 9.60 × 10−1𝑃𝑎. 𝑠 (given)

𝜂= 767 < 2000
The flow is laminar

Example 8 - Use of the Moody Diagram
Determine the friction factor 𝑓 if water at 160℉ is flowing at 30.0 ft/s in a 1-in schedule 40 steel
pipe.
Solution:
The Reynolds number must first be evaluated to determine whether the flow is laminar or
turbulent:
𝑁𝑅 =v𝐷𝜌
𝜂=
v𝐷
𝑣
𝐷 = 0.0874 𝑓𝑡 (given)
𝑣 = 4.38 × 10−6𝑓𝑡2/𝑠(given)
𝑁𝑅 =v𝐷𝜌
𝜂=
v𝐷
𝑣= 5.98 × 105
Thus, the flow is turbulent.
Now the relative roughness must be evaluated.
𝜀 = 1.5 × 10−4 (given)
Then the relative roughness is 𝐷
𝜀= 583
Use of the Moody diagram to find the friction factor 𝑓
Locate the Reynolds number on the abscissa of the Moody diagram
Project vertically until the curve for 𝐷
𝜀 is reached. You must interpolate between the curve for 500
and the one for 750 on the vertical line for 𝑁𝑅 = 5.98 × 105
Project horizontally to the left, and read 𝑓 = 0.023

Example 9 - Minor Loss
Determine the energy loss that will occur as 100 L/min of water flows through a sudden
enlargement made from two sizes of copper hydraulic tubing. The small tube is 25 mm OD × 1.5
mm wall; the large tube is 80 m OD × 2.8 mm wall. See Appendix G.2 for tube dimension and
areas.
Resistance Coefficient – sudden enlargement
Solution:
Using the subscript 1 for the section just ahead of the enlargement and subscript 2 for the section
downstream from the enlargement, we get
𝐷1 = 22𝑚𝑚 = 0.022𝑚
𝐴1 = 3.801 × 10−4𝑚2

To find a value for 𝐾, the diameter ratio is needed. We find that: 𝐷2

22= 3.382
From the Figure of Resistance Coefficient – sudden enlargement above, we read 𝐾 = 0.74
Then we have:
ℎ𝐿 = 𝐾 (v1

2𝑔) = 0.74 × 0.98 = 0.725𝑚
This result indicates that 0.725 Nm of energy is dissipated from each Newton of water that flow
through the sudden enlargement.
