A double acting duplex with 6.5" liners, 2.5" rods, 18" stroke was operated at 3000 psig, 20 cycle/min for 10 minutes with section pit isolated from return mud flow. The mud level in the section put which is 7 ft wide and 20 ft long was observed to fall 18" during this period. Compute the pump factor, volumetric pump efficiency, hydraulic horsepower developed by pump.

Calculate the vorticity of the vortex flow : Consider a velocity field where the x and y components of velocity are given by u=(cy/(x^2 + y^2)) and v= (-cx/(x^2 + y^2)) where C is constant. Calculate the vorticity of the vortex flow

Ideal gas determine the mass flow rate of the fluid : Air is compressed at steady state from 1 bar, 300 K to 5 bar 500 K using 150 kW of power. The compressor produces 50 kW of heat that is transferred to the surroundings. Assuming an ideal gas determine the mass flow rate of the fluid.

Determine the final pressure and total work done by hydrogen : Hydrogen is contained in a piston-cylinder device at 14.7 psia and 15 ft3. At this state, a linear spring (Flux) with a spring constant of 15,000 lbf/ft is touching the piston but exerts no force on it. The cross-sectional area of the piston is 3 ft2..

Determine the amount of heat rejected : A fixed mass of saturated water vapor at 400 kPa is isothermally cooled until it is a saturated liquid. Perform a closed system, energy analysis (e.g. 1st Law analysis) on the system to determine the amount of heat rejected during this process in kJ/..

Determine the rate of heat transfer between the pump : A 1.5 hP pump operating at steady state pumps water 100 ft up at a mass flow rate of 20,000 lb/hr. Assuming no change in the temperature of the water, determine the rate of heat transfer between the pump and the surroundings in Btu/hr. (g = 32 ft/s2)

Rate of heat rejection to the outside air via the condenser : R-134 enters the condenser of a window air conditioning unit at 800 kPa and 35 C and leaves as a saturated liquid at the same pressure. The compressor current draw is measured to be 5 amps at 240 V and the R-134 has a mass flow rate of 0.018 kg/s. If..

Power rating of electric heating element immersed in water : Water is boiled at sea level in a coffee maker equipped with an immersion-type electric heating element. The coffee maker contains 1 L of water when full. Once boiling starts, it is observed that half of the water in the coffee maker evaporates in 25..

Calculate the stagnation pressure and temperature : Air flows isentropic ally at the rate of 0.5 kg/s through a supersonic convergent-divergent nozzle. At the inlet, the pressure is 680 kPa. the temperature 295 K. and the area is 6.5cm^2. If the exit area is 13 cm*2,
