    SAE SOLUTIONS TUTORIAL 1 - FLUID FLOW THEORY


    ASSIGNMENT 3
    1. A pipe is 25 km long and 80 mm bore diameter. The mean surface roughness is 0.03 mm. It carries
    oil of density 825 kg/m3 at a rate of 10 kg/s. The dynamic viscosity is 0.025 N s/m2.
    Determine the friction coefficient using the Moody Chart and calculate the friction head. (Ans.
    3075 m.)
    Q = m/ = 10/825 = 0.01212 m3/s
    um = Q/A = 0.01212/( x 0.042) = 2.411 m/s
    Re = ud/ = 825 x 2.4114 x 0.08/0.025 = 6366
    k/D = 0.03/80 = 0.000375
    From the Moody chart Cf = 0.0083
    hf = 4 Cf L u2/2gd = 4 x 0.0083 x 25000 x 2.41142/(2 x 9.91 x 0.08) = 3075 m
    2. Water flows in a pipe at 0.015 m3/s. The pipe is 50 mm bore diameter. The pressure drop is 13 420
    Pa per metre length. The density is 1000 kg/m3 and the dynamic viscosity is 0.001 N s/m2.
    Determine
    i. the wall shear stress (167.75 Pa)
    ii. the dynamic pressure (29180 Pa).
    iii. the friction coefficient (0.00575)
    iv. the mean surface roughness (0.0875 mm)
    o = p D/4L = 13420 x 0.05/4 = 167.75 Pa
    um = Q/A = 0.015/( x 0.0252) = 7.64 m/s
    Dynamic Pressure = u2/2 = 1000 x 7.642/2 = 29180 Pa
    Cf = o/Dyn Press = 167.75/29180 = 0.00575
    From the Moody Chart we can deduce that = 0.0017 = k/D

    k = 0.0017 x 50 = 0.085 mm

    3. Explain briefly what is meant by fully developed laminar flow. The velocity u at any radius r in
    fully developed laminar flow through a straight horizontal pipe of internal radius ro is given by
    u = (1/4)(ro2 - r2)dp/dx
    dp/dx is the pressure gradient in the direction of flow and is the dynamic viscosity.
    Show that the pressure drop over a length L is given by the following formula.
    p = 32Lum/D2
    The wall skin friction coefficient is defined as Cf = 2o/( um2).
    Show that Cf = 16/Re where Re = umD/ and is the density, um is the mean velocity and o is
    the wall shear stress.

    3. Oil with viscosity 2 x 10-2 Ns/m2 and density 850 kg/m3 is pumped along a straight horizontal
    pipe with a flow rate of 5 dm3/s. The static pressure difference between two tapping points 10 m
    apart is 80 N/m2. Assuming laminar flow determine the following.
    i. The pipe diameter.
    ii. The Reynolds number.
    Comment on the validity of the assumption that the flow is laminar

    ASSIGNMENT 4
    1. Research has shown that tomato ketchup has the following viscous properties at 25oC.
    Consistency coefficient K = 18.7 Pa sn
    Power n = 0.27
    Shear yield stress = 32 Pa
    Calculate the apparent viscosity when the rate of shear is 1, 10, 100 and 1000 s-1 and conclude on
    the effect of the shear rate on the apparent viscosity.
    app =

    This fluid should obey the Herchel-Bulkeley equation so


    put = 1 and app = 50.7
    put = 10 and app = 6.682
    put = 100 and app = 0.968
    put = 1000 and app = 0.153
    The apparent viscosity reduces as the shear rate increases.
