(1-iii) Where is the control valve best located for a liquid positive displacement pump: (2 marks)
(a) Delivery side. A valve on the suction side could cause areas of low pressure and
formation of gas bubbles that could damage the pump.
(b) Suction side. Due to high pressure produced by the pump, closing a valve at the outlet
will cause severe damage or even pipe rupture.
(c) Suction side. Backflow and cavitation can occur if placed on the delivery side.
(d) Delivery side. A pressure relief valve is needed due to the high pressure delivered.
(e) No control valves required. Pumps operate at a constant speed.

(1-v) Your friends seek your clever advice on pressure. They send you a 2-D map (below) of a dive
through a cave network, where the white region is the atmosphere and light-shaded region is water.
They have already measured the gauge pressure (P) at locations of A and B (i.e. P A and P8) in the
lake. However, they are worried that once they enter the caves at point C and beyond point D, that
the pressure will increase due to the narrowness of the cave system and thus putting their lives at
risk. What do you suggest to them, assuming the map is accurate: (2 marks)
(a) You have no idea, except PB > P A and PG >PH.

Question 6 (20 marks)
As a graduate engineer you are placed in charge of operations concerning the flow of gas at a
chemical plant. On your first day, the plant operators highlight some problems and queries they
have been having on the gas pipe. However, you have been warned by your manager that despite
their good nature, the operators will likely put you to the test to see what you know so think
carefully about what they tell you. He encourages you to impress them with quick answers to their
queries to earn their respect. The properties of C02 are: Mw = 44.01; R = 188.9 J/kg.K; Cp = 841.8
J/kg.K; k = 1.40. For an ideal gas: P = pR T, k = Cp/Cv. The speed of sound (c) is given by c

Y . Atmospheric pressure is 101 ,000
Pa. State and justify any assumptions and show calculations.
(a) A pitot tube is being used to monitor the flow rate of C02 in a 10 em diameter pipe at T = 295K.
The pressure readings in the control office show that the static pressure is P static = 150 Pa (gauge)
and the stagnation pressure is Pstagnation = 213 Pa (gauge). For a pitot tube, you recall that the
stagnation pressure is the pressure at the entry point to the pitot tube, while the static pressure is the
pressure in the uninterrupted stream. However, the sneaky operators tell you that the flow is sonic
and that the discharge coefficient arising from the vena contracta effect is Cct= 0.65 and that the
following equation gives the velocity:
v""""' ~ c,J2{;- ;' J
Impress the operators by stating and drawing what the type of flow meter this equation is likely to
be for.
Use Bernoulli's equation to derive the actual equation for the velocity determined from pitot tube
measurements in terms of the static and stagnation pressure.
Use your equation to calculate the velocity of the gas in the pipe.
Evaluate and state whether the flow is sub sonic, sonic or supersonic ? (10 marks)
(b) The sneaky operators tell you to be careful near the compressors because they can get to sub-
zero temperatures. Calculate the temperature of carbon dioxide after it is compressed isentropically
from room temperature (298K) to 10 atm? (4 marks)
(c) Carbon dioxide is held in a vessel at a pressure of 1400 kPa and 200 C, with a total weight of
gas being held being 200 kg. Not joking now, the operators tell you that if the pressure relief valve
is triggered when the pressure just exceeds 1400 kPa, 20 kg of C02 is released in exactly 2.35
minutes through a nozzle. To impress them, you say that you can estimate the diameter of the
nozzle. Calculate the area (A) and then the radius of the nozzle required to achieve the mass flow
rate specified by the operators (Recall maximum mass flux occurs when Ma = 1 ).
The operators state they would like to be able to half the initial rate of gas lost when evacuating the
tank, without changing the temperature or pressure in the vessel, or the diameter of the nozzle.
What do you suggest to them? (6 marks)
