 Example 8.6. Air at 200F (93.3C) is forced through a long,

Example 8.6. Air at 200F (93.3C) is forced through a long, circular floe 36 in. (914 mm) in diameter. A pitot-tube reading is taken at the center of the flue at a sufficient distance from flow disturbances to ensure normal velocity distribution. The pitot reading is 0.54 in. (13.7 mm) H0, and the static pressure at the point of measurement is 15.25 in. (387 mm) H.O. The coefficient of the pitot tube is 0.98 Calculate the flow of air, in cubic feet per minute, measured at 60F (15.6"C) and a barometric pressure of 29.92 in. (760mm) Hg
