Air at an absolute pressure of 1500 kpa and 15°c flows in a 1.5 cm diameter tube. what is the maximum mass flow rate to keep the flow laminar?

Mass flow rate

Explanation:

We know that when fluid is flowing through pipe the value of Reynolds number if 2100 for laminar flow.If Reynolds number is less than 2100 then flow will be laminar flow.

We know that Reynolds number

Properties of air at 15°C from standard table

Now by putting the values

So V=2.1 m/s

We know mass flow rate given as

We know that P=ρRT

1500=ρ(0.287)(273+15)

So mass flow rate

answer:

yes that is right have a good day
