A 2-ft diameter column packed with l-teu ceramic Raschig rings was operated with air and water and found to flood at an airflow rate of 356 cfm. Air entered the column at 80 °F and 1.0 atm, and the column operated at these same conditions. What was the flow rate of liquid to the column, in gallons per minute?

PROB E. A capillary –tube viscometer is being selected to measure viscosity of a liquid food. The maximum viscosity to be measured will be 230 cP and the maximum mass rate is 900 grams per hour. If the tube length is 10 cm and the maximum sustainable pressure is 25 Pa, determine the nominal diameter size of the tube to be used.

) A 75 mm-diameter orifice is on the verticalside of a closed tank. The tank rests on a flat groundand the orifice is 0.5 m above the ground. Filled withfour fluids with air on the topmost portion that is undera pressure of 15 KPa, and the rest of specific gravities of0.80, 1.0, and 1.50, respectively, the jet hits the groundat a horizontal distance of 3.75 m. If the liquids have thesame thickness, and the power lost in the system is 233watts, determine the following:(a) The initial discharge in L/s if C=0.63.(b) The thickness of each liquid in m.(c) The coefficient of contraction.
It is desired to determine the surface tension of a particular fluid using a capillary-riseexperiment. Kienth used a 0.5 mm glass tube and found that the height of the liquidmeasured 30 mm with a contact angle of 30°. Kienth then performed viscosity measurements using an Ostwald viscometer. He found that the fluid takes 1.5 times slowerto flow through the viscometer relative to water with a density of 1000 kg/m? and aviscosity of 1.0 cP. It is previously known that the viscosity of the fluid is 1.35 cP. Whatis the surface tension of the liquid?

ample 3 (a) A sphere, 1 m internal diameter and 6 mm wall thickness, is to be pressure-tested for safety purposes with water as the pressure medium. Assuming that the sphere is initially filled with water at atmospheric pressure, what extra volume of water is required to be pumped in to produce a pressure of 3 MN/m² gauge? For water, K = 2.1 GN/m². The sphere is now placed in service and filled with gas until there is a volume change of 72 x 10 m³. Determine the pressure exerted by the gas on the walls of the sphere. To what value can the gas pressure be increased before failure occurs according to the maximum principal stress theory of elastic failure?

A pitot static tube is used to measure the velocity of air in a duct. The water manometer shows a reading of 8 cm. The static pressure in the duct is 9 kN/m2 and theair temperature is 320 K. The local barometer reads 740 mm of mercury. Calculate the airvelocity if Cv 0.98. Assume the gas constant for air as 287 J/kg K.
A class A pan was set up adjacent to a lake. The depth of water in the pan at the begin- ning of a certain week was 195 mm. In that week there was a rainfall of 45 mm and 15 mm of water was removed from the pan to keep the water level within the specified depth range. If the depth of the water in the pan at the end of the week was 190 mm calculate the pan evaporation. Using a suitable pan coefficient estimate the lake evapo- ration in that week.
