A horizontal 2-in. I. D. pipe carries water with density 62.3 lbm/ft3 . In order to measure the flow rate, the line is to be fitted with a sharp-edged orifice plate, with pressure tappings that are connected to a mercury manometer that reads up to a 15-in. difference in the mercury levels. If the largest flow rate of water is expected to be 560 lbm/min, specify the diameter of the orifice plate (in inches) that would then just register the full 15-in. difference between the mercury levels. Assume that the coefficient of contraction is 0.62. [Note: The density of mercury can be found in Appendix A.9 of the De Nevers textbook.]

Amixture of slurry and mud is to be pumped through a horizontal pipe of diameter 500 mm. the fluid behaves as a bingham plastic with a yield stress of 30 pa and viscosity 0.04 pa. s. describe the effects of the shear stress through a transverse section of the pipe by plotting the variation in shear stress and velocity profile: (i) just before the slurry starts to move (ii) as the slurry flows when the pressure gradient is double that in part (i)
