Afire nozzle is supplied through 300 ft of 3 in. diameter canvas hose (with a roughness of 0.001 ft). water from a hydrant is supplied at 50 psig to a booster pump on board the pumper truck. at design operating conditions, the pressure at the nozzle inlet is 100 psig, and the pressure drop along the hose is 33 psi per 100 ft of length. determine (a) the design flow rate, (b) the nozzle exit velocity, assuming no losses in the nozzle, and (c) the power required to drive the booster pump, if its efficiency is 70 percent

On a average work day more than work place firs are reorted

Along 8-cm diameter steam pipe whose external surface temperature is 900c connects two buildings. the pipe is exposed to ambient air at 70c with a wind speed of 50 km/hr blowing across the pipe. determine the heat loss from the pipe per unit length. (b) air at 500c enters a section of a rectangular duct (15 cm x 20 cm) at an average velocity of 7 m/s. if the walls of the duct are maintained at 100c. a) the length of the tube for an exit temperature of the air to be 40 0c. b)the rate of heat transfer from the air. c) the fan power needed to overcome the pressure drop in this section of the duct.

Consider a 1.2 meter high and 2 meter wide glass window whose thickness is 6 mm and thermal conductivity is 0.78 w/m °c. the room temperature is maintained at 24 °c, while the outdoor temperature is -5 °c. the convective heat transfer coefficients on the inner and outer surfaces of the window are 10 w/m2 °c and 25 w/m2 °c respectively. (a) draw the thermal resistance network, etermine the steady rate of heat transfer t e glass window (c) determine the temperature of the inner surface of the window
