The air-handling system for a large indoor sky diving (vertical) wind tunnel has a fan at the inlet (bottom), and a test section (where the users fly) with a circular crosssection of 5.5 m diameter. The designers want to achieve a 200 km/hr wind speed, with the air in the test-section nominally at 22 ºC and 1.0 bar. How much air (mass flow rate) will the fan that runs the wind tunnel have to supply to meet these conditions? If the pressure of the air at the exit of the wind tunnel is 0.2 psi lower than the pressure in the test section, what would be the air velocity at the exit, assuming the air temperature remained at 22 ºC?

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.
