Question: QUESTION 3 Air flows through a pipe at a rate of 2 0 0 L s . The pipe consists of two sections of diameters

QUESTION 3
Air flows through a pipe at a rate of 200Ls. The pipe consists of two sections of diameters 20 cm and 10 cm with a smooth reducing section that connects them. The pressure difference between the two pipe sections is measured by a water manometer. Neglecting frictional effects, if the inlet temperature of air is at 25C, due to the compression of the air at neck of the pipe contraction, the outlet temperature is measured at 30C, determine the differential height of water between the two pipe sections. Take the air density at 25C and 35C as 1.20kgm3 and 1.19kgm3 respectively.
