A horizontal pipe 350 mm in diameter carries a fluid for which  = 0.95 A tapered section is to be
incorporated in the pipe so as to provide a throat of reduced diameter at one point and the difference
in pressure developed between static pressure holes at the throat and at a section upstream is to be
used to operate a control system. To activate the control, a pressure difference greater than 24 kPa is
required when the volume flow rate through the main pipe exceeds 0.15 m3 /s. Neglecting friction,
calculate the throat diameter required.

A venturi-meter has its axis vertical, the inlet and throat diameters being 150 mm and 75 mm
respectively. The throat is 225 mm above the inlet, the coefficient of discharge is 0.96, and a liquid
with  = 0.78 flows through at a rate of 40 litres/s. Calculate (a) the pressure difference between
inlet and throat; (b) the difference of level which would be registered by a vertical U-tube
manometer containing mercury, the tubes above the mercury being full of the liquid flowing
through the venturi.

Show that the volume enclosed by a paraboloid of revolution height h, radius a, is half the volume of
its circumscribing cylinder.
A cylindrical tank 0.6 m in diameter and 1.2 m high is half filled with water. What speed of rotation
about its vertical axis will cause water to reach the top? At what speed will the water depth at the
wall be 0.9 m and how deep is it then at the centre?
[Ans: 154 rev/min, 109 rev/min, 0.3 m]

Integrating:

Taking the z origin at the base of the cylinder, the liquid surface on the axis (r=0) is at z=z0
For a liquid, the free surface is at atmospheric pressure, which we take as constant.
Therefore, P  Patm at z  z 0 and r  0
Substituting, Patm   gz 0  k and hence: k  Patm  gz 0
Giving: P  Patm  1 2  2 r 2   g ( z 0  z ) anywhere in the fluid. But at the surface, P  Patm
Hence, the equation describing the free surface is: 0  1 2  2 rs   g ( z 0  z s )

, which is the equation of a paraboloid!
The volume of a paraboloid is half the volume of its enclosing cylinder. So, as the cylindrical tank was halffilled initially, the fluid surface will eventually reach the outer rim at the same time it reaches the
bottom at the centre as it is spun around. In other words, at that speed of rotation,  0 ,

For Part 2, when the surface is at 0.9m above the base at the rim, the volume outside the paraboloid
must equal the initial volume above the new level at the centre, that is:

In order to act as dust collector, a column of air is made to rotate as a forced vortex in a pipe 1 m in
diameter with an angular velocity 10 s-1 . If the pressure at the wall is atmospheric, find the gauge
pressure at the centre.
[Ans: - 15.5 Pa]
As the fluid is a gas, the density is relatively small and the term  g z can be neglected; hence the pressure
variation is only significant in the radial direction:

Given that the pressure at the wall is atmospheric, P  P at r  a ,
Then Patm  1 2  2 a 2  const k allows us to calculate k  Patm  1 2  2 a 2
P  Patm  1 2  2 (r 2  a 2 )
Hence, pressure at the centre is: P  Patm  1 2  2 a 2

A ventilating duct of square section with 200 mm sides, includes a 90 0 bend in which the centre-line
of the duct follows a circular arc of radius 300 mm. Assuming that frictional effects are negligible
and that upstream of the bend the air flow is completely uniform, determine the way in which the
velocity varies with radius in the bend. Find the mass flow rate when a water-filled U-tube
manometer connected between the mid-points of the outer and inner walls reads 11.5 mm.

As the fluid is a gas, the density is relatively small and the

A cylindrical air-filled container is fitted with an impeller which, in the region 0 < r < b,
drives the air round as a forced vortex at angular velocity , but allows the air in the region with b <
r < R to move as a free vortex. A small hole in the centre of the upper cover plate communicates
with the ambient air at atmospheric pressure. Derive expressions for the pressure distribution in the
container, the pressure at the rim, and force on the upper plate.
The fluid is air, so the variation of pressure with z is negligible and P varies with r only.

Determine the head over a 600 V-notch weir when the discharge is 170 litres/s. [Take the
coefficient of discharge as 0.60]
Applying Bernoulli’s equation to flow over a V-notch weir (assuming negligible velocity upstream and
remembering the width of flow over the weir varies with head), it can be shown that the discharge is given as:
