P2 = 0.6 kgf/cm2
D1 = 7.5 cm
D2 = 15 cm
Mass flow rate = 8.5 kg/sec
Formulae:
Equation of continuity
r1A1v1 = r2A2v2
Bernoulli's equation
For the flow direction from 1 to 2,

Mass flow rate = volumetric flow rate x density


Calculations:
Volumetric flow rate = 8.5/1000 = 8.5 x 10-3 m3/sec
V1 = 8.5 x 10-3/(pD12/4) = 8.5 x 10-3/(p x 0.0752/4) = 8.5 x 10-3/0.00441= 1.924 m/sec
V2 = 8.5 x 10-3/(pD22/4) = 8.5 x 10-3/(p x 0.152/4) = 8.5 x 10-3/0.01767 = 0.481 m/sec
P1 = 0.3 kgf/cm2 = 0.3 x 9.812 N/cm2 = 2.9436 x 104 N/m2
P2 = 0.6 kgf/cm2 = 0.6 x 9.812 N/cm2 = 5.8872 x 104 N/m2
Assuming the flow direction is from 1 to 2:
2.9436 x 104/1000 + 1.9242/2 = 5.8872 x 104/1000 + 0.4812/2 + h + w -q
29.436 + 1.851 = 58.872 + 0.116 + h + w -q
In the given problem work done by fluid (w) and pump work on fluid (q) are zero.
So to balance the above equation, the quantity h has to have negative values. This is not possible.
The above equation will be a correct one, if the flow is from 2 to 1.
i.e. 58.872 + 0.116 = 29.436 + 1.851 + h
Therefore the flow direction is from the end at which pressure is 0.6 kgf/cm2 and diameter is 15 mm
to the end at which pressure is 0.3 kgf/cm2 and diameter is 7.5 mm.

Radius of sphere of volume 2.356 cm3:
4 p rs3 / 3 = 2.356
rs = 0.8255 cm
Surface area of sphere of same volume as the particle = 4 p rs2 = 4 x p x 0.82552 = 8.563 cm2
Surface area of particle = 2 p rc (h + rc) = 2 x p x 0.5 x (3 + 0.5) = 10.996 cm2
Sphericity (f s) = 8.563/10.996 = 0.779
Sphericity could also be found from the formula,
Sphericity (f s) = 6 Vp / (DpSp)
Where Vp = volume of particle
Dp = Equivalent diameter of particle. (Equivalent diameter is defined as the diameter of a sphere of
equal volume)
Sp = surface area of particle
Vp = p rc2 h = 2.356 cm3
Dp = 2 rs = 2 x 0.8255 = 1.651 cm
Sp = 2 p rc (h + rc) = 10.996 cm2
f s = 6 x 2.356 / (1.651 x 10.996) = 0.779

hf = 2 x 0.003215 x 2000 x 42/0.15 = 1371.73 m2/sec2
Frictional losses per unit weight (h)= hf/g = 1371.73/9.812 = 139.8 m
Power required for pumping = mass flow rate x g x h / efficiency of pump
Mass flow rate = volumetric flow rate x density

Formula:
Bernoulli's equation for frictionless flow is

Discharge(Q) = cross sectional area x velocity


Calculations:
Applying Bernoulli's equation for the points 1 and 3, ( i.e. comparing the energy levels for the fluid in
the tank surface and at the discharge point of tube)
p1 = 0 N/m2(g)
p3 = 0 N/m2(g)
z1 = 0 m
z3 = -2 m
Since the rate of fall of liquid level in the tank is almost negligible,
v1 = 0 m/sec.
Therefore,
0 + 0 + 0 = 0 + (v32 / 2g) - 2
v3 = (2 x 2g)0.5 = 6.265 m/sec
Q = (p/4)D2 v = (p/4) x 0.032 x 6.265 = 0.00443 m3/sec = 15.94 m3/hr
Applying Bernoulli's equation for the points 1 and 2, ( i.e. comparing the energy levels for the fluid at
the tank surface to the peak point of siphon)
p1 = 0 N/m2(g)
z2 = 1.4 m
v2 = v3 = 6.265 m/sec (since the cross sectional area of sections 2 and 3 are the same)
0 + 0 + 0 = p2 / (rg) + 6.2652 / (2g) + 1.4
p2 / (rg) = -3.4 m
p2 = -3.4 x 1000 x 9.812 N/m2(g) = -33360.8 N/m2(g)

For the right hand leg pressure at O' = Po' = Py + (1.5 + a) x 800 x 9.812 N/m2
Px + (2.5 + 1.5) x 1590 x 9.812 + a x 13600 x 9.812 = Py + (1.5 + a) x 800 x 9.812
Substituting for Px and Py,
