Gasoline (T=50 degrees F) is pumped from the gas tank of an automobile to the carburetor through a 1/4 in fuel line of drawn tubing 10 ft long. The line has five 90 degree smooth bends with an r/d of 6. The gasoline discharges through a 1/32 in jet in the carburetor to a pressure of 14 psia. The pressure in the tank is 14.7 psia. The pump is 80% efficient. What power must be supplied to the pump if the automobile is consuming fuel at a rate of 0.12 gpm. S=0.68, 2ft Pump 1/4 in line (ID) Carburetor tul
A streamlined nozzle of diameter d is supplied at constant head, the magnitude of the head being larger compared to d. The nozzle discharges directly into the atmosphere and is so shaped that, the issuing jet is parallel at the nozzle exit. To increase the flow, rate a shroud of the diameter D, is firmly secured to the nozzle. The jet expands to fill the shroud and the shroud is long enough to ensure that the flow leaving is steady and parallel. Determine: The diameter of the shroud so that the flow rate is maximised, and the percentage increase in discharge.

Q2. Gasoline at 20°C is pumped through a smooth 12-cm diameter pipe 10km long, at a flow rate of 75m /h (330 gal/min). The inlet is fed by a pump at an absolute pressure of 24atm. The exit is at standard atmospheric pressure and is 150m higher. Estimate the frictional head loss hy, and compare it to the head of the flow V?/(2g).
Gasoline at 20°C is pumped through a smooth pipe at a steady flow and the pipe diameter is constant. The inlet is fed by a pump at an absolute pressure. The exit is at standard atmospheric pressure and is higher elevation than the inlet. The velocity is calculated by 1.336 m/s. Estimate the head velocity flow, assuming that no shaft work, thus hpump=hturbine = 0.
