SOAL-SOAL TUTORIAL KE-5 MEKANIKA FLUIDA-1 (MS2231)

1. Determine the manometer reading, h, for the flow shown in figure.

2. Air flows steadily through the variable area pipe shown in figure. Determine the flowrate if
viscous and compressibility effects are negligible.

3. Determine the flowrate through the submerged orifice shown in figure if the contraction
coefficient is Cc = 0.63.

4. Water flows from the pipe shown in figure as a free jet and strikes a circular flat plate. The flow
geometry shown is axisymmetrical. Determine the flowrate and the manometer reading, H.

5. Air flows from a hole of diameter 0.03 m in a flat plate as shown in figure. A circular disk of
diameter D is placed a distance h from the lower plate. The pressure in the tank is maintained at 1
kPa. Determine the flowrate as a function of h if viscous effects and elevation changes are
assumed negligible and the flow exits radially from the circumference of the circular disk with
uniform velocity.

6. Determine the flowrate through the Venturi meter shown in figure if ideal conditions exist.
