Chapter 16, Problem 16.24PP

A set of louvers deflects a stream of warm air onto painted parts, as illustrated in Fig. 16.21. The louvers are rotated slowly to distribute the air evenly over the parts. Compute the torque required to rotate the louvers toward the stream of air when it is flowing at a velocity of 10 ft/s. Assume that all the air that approaches a given louver is deflected to the angle of the louver. The air has a density of 2.06   *   10 3 s l u g s / f t 3 . Use 6   =   45 ° .

If the velocity of flow in a 75-mm diameter fire hose is 0.5 m/s, what is the velocity in a diameter 25 mm of a jet issuing from a nozzle attached at the end of the pipe. Compute also the power available in the jet.
Figure 16.23 is a sketch of a turbine in which the incom- ing stream of water at 15°C has a diameter of 7.50 mm and is moving with a velocity of 25 m/s. Compute the force on one blade of the turbine if the stream is deflected through the angle shown and the blade is stationary.
Calculate the force exerted by a stationary curved vane that deflects a 2 inch diameter stream of water through a 120 degree angle. The volume flow rate is 175 gal/min. The stream is directed parallel to the positive x horizontal. 120° (Work on Paper Required)
