For which of 'water' flow velocities at 200C can we assume that the flow is incompressible ? a.1000 km per hour b. 500 km per hour c. 2000 km per hour d. 200 km per hour

Respuesta :

Answer:d

Explanation:

Given

Temperature[tex]=200^{\circ}\approc 473 K[/tex]

Also [tex]\gamma for air=1.4[/tex]

R=287 J/kg

Flow will be In-compressible when Mach no.<0.32

Mach no.[tex]=\frac{V}{\sqrt{\gamma RT}}[/tex]

(a)[tex]1000 km/h\approx 277.78 m/s[/tex]

Mach no.[tex]=\frac{277.78}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}[/tex]

Mach no.=0.63

(b)[tex]500 km/h\approx 138.89 m/s[/tex]

Mach no.[tex]=\frac{138.89}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}[/tex]

Mach no.=0.31

(c)[tex]2000 km/h\approx 555.55 m/s[/tex]

Mach no.[tex]=\frac{555.55}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}[/tex]

Mach no.=1.27

(d)[tex]200 km/h\approx 55.55 m/s[/tex]

Mach no.[tex]=\frac{55.55}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}[/tex]

Mach no.=0.127

From above results it is clear that for Flow at velocity 200 km/h ,it will be incompressible.
