Question:
During the production of biodiesel, glycerin is a waste product and is collected by gravity separation because its SG (1.26) is much higher than that of biodiesel. Glycerin is withdrawn from the bottom of the separation tank through a pipe that has p1 = 350 kPa gage, where D = 70 cm and the flowrate is 680 L/s. Find the pressure at section 2, which is 0.8 m higher and where the diameter has been reduced to d = 35 cm. Assume the flow is inviscid.
Biodiesel- D (2 Glycerin 1.
Step by Step Answer:
The pressure at section 2 can be found using the Bernoulli equation which relates the pressure veloc...View the full answer

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
