- The ratio of actual work available at the turbine to the energy imparted to the wheel is known as ________ efficiency.
- Re-entrant or Borda's mouthpiece is an __________ mouthpiece.
- When the Venturimeter is inclined, then for a given flow it will show __________ reading.
- The highest efficiency is obtained with a channel of __________ section.
- When a tube of smaller diameter is dipped in water, the water rises in the tube with an upward __________ surface.
- The diameter of the nozzle (d) for maximum transmission of power is given by (where D = Diameter of pipe, f = Darcy’s coefficient of friction for pipe, and l = Length of pipe)
- The loss of head due to friction in a pipe of uniform diameter in which a viscous flow is taking place, is (where RN = Reynold number)
