Consider an isentropic flow of air (ratio of specific heats = 1.4) through a duct as shown in the figure.
The variations in the flow across the cross-section are negligible. The flow conditions at Location 1 are given as follows:
π1 = 100 kPa, π1 = 1.2 kg/m3 , π’1= 400 m/s
The duct cross-sectional area at Location 2 is given by A2 = 2A1, where A1 denotes the duct cross-sectional area at Location 1. Which one of the given statements about the velocity π’2 and pressure π2 at Location 2 is TRUE?
The velocity field of a certain two-dimensional flow is given by
V(π₯, π¦) = π(π₯πΜ β π¦πΜ)
where π = 2 s-1. The coordinates π₯ and π¦ are in meters. Assume gravitational effects to be negligible.
If the density of the fluid is 1000 kg/m3 and the pressure at the origin is 100 kPa, the pressure at the location (2 m, 2 m) is _____________ kPa.
(Answer in integer)
Consider a unidirectional fluid flow with the velocity field given by
V(π₯, π¦, π§, π‘) = π’(π₯, π‘) πΜ
where π’(0,π‘) = 1. If the spatially homogeneous density field varies with time π‘ as
π(π‘) = 1 + 0.2πβπ‘
the value of π’(2, 1) is ______________. (Rounded off to two decimal places) Assume all quantities to be dimensionless.
The figure shows two fluids held by a hinged gate. The atmospheric pressure is Pa = 100 kPa. The moment per unit width about the base of the hinge is ____________ kNm/m. (Rounded off to one decimal place)
Take the acceleration due to gravity to be g = 9.8 m/s2.
