A pitot tube is inserted in a ventilation duct with the nose facing the air flow. A vertical U-tube manometer filled with alcohol (specific gravity 0.8) has been used for pressure measurements such that 10.2 mm is read as the total pressure and 8.8 mm as the static pressure. Given the density of air to be 1.2 kg/m3, the air velocity at the nose of the pitot tube in m/s is

A heating unit is made in the form of a vertical tube of 50 mm outside diameter and 1.2 m height. The tube is fitted with 20 steel fins of rectangular section with height 40 mm and thickness 2.5 mm. The temperature at the base of fin is 75 degree Celsius, the surrounding air temperature is 20 degree Celsius and the heat transfer coefficient between the fin as well as the tube surface and the surrounding air is 9.5 W/m2 K. If thermal conductivity of the fin material is 55 W/m K, find the amount of heat transferred from the tube without fin
Consider a capillary tube in which water has risen. The contact angle is θ. The radius of the capillary tube is ‘r’. The surface tension is ‘S’. And the density of water is ‘ρ’. What is the expression for the height of water risen in the tube? Assume the radius of meniscus to be ‘R’. Let the height of water risen in the tube be ‘h’.
A tapered tube of length 8cm and end diameters 2cm and 4cm connects two vessels containing mixtures of A and B. if the tapered tube is replaced with a cylindrical tube of diameter 6cm, what will be the required length of the cylindrical tube to maintain the same flow rate as in the previous case?
