An oil of viscosity 8 poise and specific gravity 0.9 flows through a horizontal pipe of 80 mm diameter. If the pressure drop over a 100 m length of the pipe is 1800 kN/m 2 , determine the rate of flow (Q) and maximum velocity (u max ).
- 1Q = 0.2259 m 3 /s, u max = 9.2 m/s
- 2Q = 0.0226 m 3 /s, u max = 9.0 m/s✓
- 3Q = 0.2590 m 3 /s, u max = 10.0 m/s
- 4Q = 0.0226 m 3 /s, u max = 4.5 m/s
Correct answer
Q = 0.0226 m 3 /s, u max = 9.0 m/s
