Determine whether the flow is laminar or turbulent if the fluid is (a) hydrogen (v=1.08 x 10-4 m2/s), (b) air (v=1.51 x 10-5 m2/s), (c) gasoline (v=4.06 x 10-7 m2/s), (d) water (v=1.02 x 10-6 m2/s), (e) mercury (v=1.15 x 10-7 m2/s), or (f) glycerin (v=1.18 x 10-3 m2/s).
Determine the (a) shear stress at the walls of a 400-mm- diameter pipe when water flowing causes a head lost of 3 m in 100 m pipe length, (b) the shear velocity, and the (c) shear stress at 60 mm from the centerline of the pipe.
Oil having a specific gravity of 0.763 and dynamic viscosity of 0.0864 Pa-s flows through a cast iron pipe at a velocity of 2 m/s. The pipe is 60 m long and 100 mm in diameter.(a) Find the head lost due to friction, and (b) Find the shearing stress in Pa at the walls of the pipe.
