BASIC PROBLEM #6
Sulphuric acid is pumped at 3 kg/s through a 60 m length of smooth 25 mm pipe. Calculate
the drop in pressure. If the pressure drop falls by one half, what will be the new
flowrate? Density of acid D 1840 kg/m
3
. Viscosity of acid D 25 mN s/m2.
Dik:
Mass = 3kg/s
Length = 60 m
Diametre = 25 mm = 0.025m
= 1840kg/m
3
= 25 mN s/m

For a smooth pipe and Re = 6120,8.

Basic Problem #3
Compressed gas is distributed from a works in cylinders which are filled to a pressure
P by connecting them to a large reservoir of gas which remains at a steady pressure P
and temperature T. If the small cylinders are initially at a temperature T and pressure P0,
what is the final temperature of the gas in the cylinders if heat losses can be neglected
and if the compression can be regarded as reversible? Assume that the ideal gas laws are
applicable.
Dik :
T1 = T
P1 = P0
P2 = P
Adiabatis -> Q = 0
Dit : T2?

Jawab:
u = Q w
Q = 0
u = -w
W = P dv
u = - Pdv = Cv dT ...(1)

Pv = nRT
P =
