Question: In a metal processing plant which is operating at 1 0 0 0 K , a molten Aluminium with a density of 2 g .

In a metal processing plant which is operating at 1000K, a molten Aluminium with a
density of 2
g.cm 3 is flowing inside a temperature resistant cylindrical ceramic pipe.
The cross-section of the pipe 1 is twice of the cross-section of pipe 2. The velocity
and the pressure of the molten metal inside the pipe 1 is 0.75ms and 150kPa,
respectively. By assuming that the molten metal is an incompressible fluid, determine:
(a). the pressure inside the pipe 2
(b). the velocity along the pipe 2
(c). the ratio of Reynolds numbers between wider to narrower pipes (if the viscosity
of the molten Aluminium is 1.2mPa.s)
 In a metal processing plant which is operating at 1000K, a
