Viscosity

Friction loss is defined as the pressure loss or head loss that usually occurs in pipeline fluid flow because of the viscosity effect near the surface of the pipe. When the fluid flows along the pipeline, it produces frictional resistance thus results in loss of energy or total head loss of the fluid. Therefore, experiment was conducted to verify the Darcy Weisbach equation by determining the pressure loss along a horizontal pipe. Figure A below shows the diagram of friction loss along a…

The experiment of fluidization in packed column was determined by using air as the conveying media. The fluidized bed is when the air make the solid to behave like a fluid. For this experiment, two columns are use which one column are filled with sand and the other one filled with aluminum oxide. The bed height of aluminum oxide is 100 mm and have a particle size about 250 micron (mesh 60). The minimum fluidization velocity is used to determine the pressure drop. As mentioned above, when the…

be a two-component fluid with independent velocity fields: the inviscid superfluid of density $\rho_s$, and the normal fluid of density $\rho_n$, where the total density $\rho$ = $\rho_s$ + $\rho_n$ \cite{Tisza,Landau}. The superfluid has neither viscosity nor entropy, and the entire heat content of He II is carried by the normal component. This simplified picture is described by two fluid equations of motion. %The important outcomes of these equations are not only the existence of density…

Particle Deformation and Fragmentation: As compaction force increases, contact area between particles increases, particle deformation starts to occur. Elastic deformation: granules attempt to return to their original shape or form after stress is released. Plastic deformation: granules do not totally recover after stress is released. Fragmentation occurs when compaction force continues to increase Particles fracture, create multiple new surface sites, additional contact points and potential…

Sometimes seemingly mundane tasks can be deceptively complex. For example, many individuals may perceive the pouring of a liquid as a simple concept that should require very little thought or planning. If your task is to pour a liquid, you would probably not stop to plan out how you will do so. While pouring from a cup can be explained in a very basic way, there are more complex versions of liquid transfer as well. Furthermore, if you are not pouring water but a more valuable resource instead,…

Fluid dynamics and Bernoulli's equation Moving fluids Fluid dynamics is the study of how fluids behave when they're in motion. This can get very complicated, so we'll focus on one simple case, but we should briefly mention the different categories of fluid flow. Fluids can flow steadily, or be turbulent. In steady flow, the fluid passing a given point maintains a steady velocity. For turbulent flow, the speed and or the direction of the flow varies. In steady flow, the motion can be represented…

ORIFICE PLATE: Definition: An orifice plate is a device that is used for the measurement of flow rate for reducing pressure or for the restricting flow. An orifice plate is a thin plate with a hole in it, which is usually placed in a pipe. When a fluid (either liquid or gaseous) passes through the orifice, its pressure builds up slightly upstream of the orifice. But as the fluid is forced to converge to pass through the hole, the velocity increases & the fluid pressure decreases. Orifice Plate…

1) Informing clients about their current illness or health status will encourage them to follow medical treatment regimes while also allowing them to figure out personalized coping strategies (Bastable & Alt, 2014). Having this information will result in the chances of complications to decrease (Bastable & Alt, 2014). Evaluating the clients knowledge gaps and filling them in will not only help us care providers but will lead to better client outcomes. It is also a process that includes the…

Research This project is about what makes bouncy balls bouncy. My hypothesis is that the borax is what makes it bouncy and It will take more borax than glue to make the ball bouncier. This is important to know this because if you add too much or too less you will not have a real bouncy ball . There are three main thing we have to remember while doing this project. I will be mentioning three thing in my S.A.:Materials, Momentum, and Velocity. To make the bouncy ball bouncy it will need the…

ANEROID – sensitive component in an altimeter or barometer that measures absolute pressure of the air. -Sealed, flat capsule made of thin corrugated disks of metal soldered together and evacuated by pumping all of the air out of it. PRESSURE – amount of force acting on a given unit of area and all pressure must be measured from some known references. BAROMETRICSCALE/KOLLSMAN WINDOW- small window in the dial of a sensitive altimeter in which the pilot sets the barometric pressure level from…
