- The head loss in turbulent flow in a pipe varies
- A 2" gate valve fitted in a pipe is replaced by a similar globe valve. Pressure drop in gate valve was Δp. For the same discharge, the pressure drop across globe valve is
- The fluid velocity varies as the cube of the cylinderical pipe diameter in case of steady state laminar flow at constant pressure drop for __________ fluid.
- The __________ is measured by a piezometric opening.
- Multistage compressors are used in industry, because they
- Vane anemometer
- If three pipes of different diameters, lengths & friction factors are connected in parallel, then (where, Q = flow rate, V= fluid velocity f = friction factor).
- Reynolds number for flow of water at room temperature through 2 cm dia pipe at an average velocity of 5 cm/sec is around
- A double acting reciprocating pump compared to a single acting pump (of almost same size working under same pressure levels) would give almost double
- Volute type of casing is provided in a centrifugal pump to
