The pressure drop needed to force water through a horizontal 1-in.-diameter pipe is 0.40 psi for every 9-ft length of pipe. (a) Determine the shear stress on the pipe wall. Determine the shear stress at distances (b) 0.3 and (c) 0.5 in. away from the pipe wall.

Explain the difference laminar and turbulent flow. explain it with the shear stress and the velocity profiles.

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.

Water at 55c flows across a flat plate whose surface temperature is held constant at 95c. if the temperature gradient at the plate's surface for a given value of x is 18 c/mm, find a) local heat transfer coefficient. b) heat flux
