1. A nozzle for an incompressible, inviscid fluid of density ρ = 1000 kg/m3 consists of a


converging section of pipe. At the inlet the diameter is Di =100 mm, and at the outlet the
diameter is Do = 20 mm. The nozzle length is L= 500 mm, and the diameter decreases
linearly with distance x along the nozzle. Derive and plot the acceleration of a fluid particle,
assuming uniform flow at each section, if the speed at the inlet is Vi = 1 m/s. Plot the
pressure gradient through the nozzle, and find its maximum absolute value. If the pressure
gradient must be no greater than 5 MPa/m in absolute value, how long would the nozzle
have to be?

2. Calculate the dynamic pressure that corresponds to a speed of 100 km/hr in standard air.
Express your answer in millimeters of water.

3. Water flows steadily up the vertical 1-in.-diameter pipe and out the nozzle, which is 0.5 in. in
diameter, discharging to atmospheric pressure. The stream velocity at the nozzle exit must
be 30 ft/s. Calculate the minimum gage pressure required at section 1 . If the device were
inverted, what would be the required minimum pressure at section 1 to maintain the nozzle
exit velocity at 30 ft/s?

4. A jet of air from a nozzle is blown at right angles against a wall in which two pressure taps
are located. A manometer connected to the tap directly in front of the jet shows a head of 25
mm of mercury above atmospheric. Determine the approximate speed of the air leaving the
nozzle if it is at 210 0C and 200 kPa. At the second tap a manometer indicates a head of 5 mm
of mercury above atmospheric; what is the approximate speed of the air there?

5. Consider frictionless, incompressible flow of air over the wing of an airplane flying at 200
km/hr. The air approaching the wing is at 65 kPa and 210 0C. At a certain point in the flow,
the pressure is 60 kPa. Calculate the speed of the air relative to the wing at this point and the
absolute air speed.

6. A smoothly contoured nozzle, with outlet diameter d = 20 mm, is coupled to a straight pipe
by means of flanges. Water flows in the pipe, of diameter D= 50 mm, and the nozzle
discharges to the atmosphere. For steady flow and neglecting the effects of viscosity, find the
volume flow rate in the pipe corresponding to a calculated axial force of 45.5 N needed to
keep the nozzle attached to the pipe.

7. An airplane flies 100 mi/hr at an elevation of 10,000 ft in a standard atmosphere as shown


in Figure. Determine the pressure at point (1) far ahead of the airplane, the pressure at the
stagnation point on the nose of the airplane, point (2), and the pressure difference indicated
by a Pitot-static probe attached to the fuselage.

8. A speedboat on hydrofoils is moving at 20 m/s in a freshwater lake. Each hydrofoil is 3 m


below the surface. Assuming, as an approximation, frictionless, incompressible flow, find the
stagnation pressure (gage) at the front of each hydrofoil. At one point on a hydrofoil, the
pressure is 275 kPa (gage). Calculate the speed of the water relative to the hydrofoil at this
point and the absolute water speed.
9. Air at 20 psia and 100 0F flows around a smooth corner at the inlet to a diffuser. The air
speed is 150 ft/s, and the radius of curvature of the streamlines is 3 in. Determine the
magnitude of the centripetal acceleration experienced by a fluid particle rounding the
corner. Express your answer in gs. Evaluate the pressure gradient, ߜp/ߜr.
