Textbook Question
Chapter 7, Problem 7.16P
A certain tank has a circular bottom area A = 20 ft2. It is drained by a pipe whose linear resistance is R — 150 m-1sec_1. The tank contains water whose mass density is 1.94 slug/ft3.
- Estimate how long it will take for the tank to empty if the water height is initially 30 ft.
- Suppose we dump water into the tank at a rate of 0.1 ft3/sec. If the tank is initially empty and the outlet pipe remains open, find the steady-state height and the time to reach one-third that height, and estimate how long it will take to reach the steady-state height.

Consider the three tank system shown in the figure. All
tanks are completely empty. At time t=0 water flows
into tank 1 at a constant rate of Q and subsequently
flows into tanks 2 and 3. Also, water drains from tanks 1

and tanks 2 as shown.
Develop a model (differential equation system) that will
describe this system.
Assume time constant ,T = 1.
Liquid in a fixed volume closed container isis mixed. X + 400 kJ of work is done to mix the propellerand 500 kJ of heat transfer from the vessel walls to the environment. The internal energy of the liquid in its final state is 660 kJ.As it is known, find the initial internal energy. Draw the system schematically and show the energy flow.(It is assumed that there is no kinetic and potential energy change.)

Problem 1
a) In an open vessel, a certain volume V of water is perfectly agitated by means of an
impeller 20 cm in diameter D. Consider a case in which the impeller steadily rotates at
150 RPM (=revolutions per minute)
Draw up a proper energy balance to find how temperature changes with time as a
result of the power input øw, also named P, by the revolving impeller.
• This Pis given by the formula P = 3.5 PN°D° in which N denotes the impeller speed in
revolutions per second. Calculate P.
When V = 120 litre and the specific heat of water amounts to 4.2 kJ/kgK, calculate
the temperature increase of the water after one hour of stirring.

There is an outlet line with a radius of 0.1 m at the bottom of the tank. a. What is the time required for half of the water in the tank to drain after the outlet line is opened?b. The flow velocity of water from the bottom of a water tank is related to the height of the water in the tank, and this relation is v² = 2gh where v: (m / s) linear flow velocity, g: gravitational acceleration (10 m / s2) and h: (m) height.arrow_forward
- Help me pleasearrow_forward(c) As shown in Figure 2.4(a), a liquid of constant density p drains from a large tank to the surrounding atmosphere through a long circular pipe of length h and diameter D. Exasperated that it is taking so long to drain the tank, a simple-minded engineer removes the tube so that the liquid drains directly to the surrounding atmosphere through a hole of diameter D, as shown in Figure 2.4(b). The engineer also tries to replace the constant diameter pipe with a tapered pipe having inlet and outlet diameters of D and 0.5D, respectively, and a length of h, as shown in Figure 2.4(c). The tapered pipe's diameter varies linearly along the length of the pipe. In all three cases, the height of the liquid in the tank is H and it is assumed that the liquid level in the tank falls very slowly. Assume that the flow is inviscid, and that the pipes are completely filled with liquid. The liquid's exit velocities are V₁, V2 and V3 for Figures 2.4(a), (b) and (c), respectively.

- An open container made of metal is placed ona scale. Water flows into the container through an opening at the top. At the same time, water flows from the container through the two-equal 45° deflection opening at the sides (Figure Q2). The metal cylinder height is 65 cm, having a diameter of 26 cm, and weighs 21 N when empty. Under normal steady flow conditions, the water level maintained at 58 cm measured from the bottom of the container. One of your friends claims that we can treat this as a simple statics problem by saying that the scale will measure the weight of the volume of water in the tank plus the tank weight only but you disagree with his/her statement. You make a message that says that flow analysis is required. Proof that you are right.|arrow_forwardA cylindrical tank is being filled with water flowing with constant velocity V1 through a tap (Tap 1) that has an opening of diameter D1. The tank is initially empty and contains a tap (Tap 2) placed H1 m above the bottom of the tank that drains water at a velocity of V2 = √2gh. Assuming flow through Tap 2 starts the moment Tank 1 height reaches H1 m, write the differential equation governing the change of water level inside the tank with time (dh/dt=? );i) Before water level reaches H1.ii) After water level reaches H1 up until the tank is full. Do NOT attempt to solve the differential equations!Just drive the differential equations and write the boundaries of the definite integrals.arrow_forwardImagine the water level in the tank as shown in the Figure rises at a rate of 0.004579 ft³/sec. then find: i) The volume flowrate of water leaving the tank (Q3) in ft³/s from pipe 3. ii) The average velocity of water leaving the tank (V3) in ft/s from pipe 3.
