Awater tank filled with solar-heated water at 40°c is to be used for showers in a field using gravity-driven flow.

the system includes 35 m of 1.5-cm-diameter galvanized iron piping with four miter bends (90°) without vanes and a wide-open globe valve.

if water is to flow at a rate of 1.2 l/s through the shower head, determine how high the water level in the tank must be from the exit level of the shower.

disregard the losses at the entrance and at the shower head, and neglect the effect of the kinetic energy correction factor. the density and dynamic viscosity of water at 40°c are rho = 992.1 kg/m3 and μ = 0.653 × 10–3 kg/m·s.

the roughness of galvanized iron pipe is ε = 0.00015 m. ignore the minor losses. the free surface of the tank must m above the shower exit to ensure water flow at the specified rate.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
