Question 1

A large turbine generates a power of 1000 kW under a head of 50 m. A 1/5th model of a hydraulic turbine is tested against a head of 10 m. The power developed (kW) and the discharge flow rate (m3/s) by the model are

Question 2

A water sprinkler has 8 mm diameter nozzle at either end of rotating arm. It is discharging water at right angle to the rotating arm in opposite direction at a velocity of 10 m/s. If the axis of rotation is at a distance of 0.2 m from one end and 0.24 m from other end then the angular velocity of arm is (neglect frictional effect).

Question 3

A cargo ship weighs 50 MN and the ships is tilted through an angle of 5 due to water of weighing 500 KN is being filled on ship’s boats. The mean distance of water (in mm) from the centre of the ships is 12 m. The metacentric height is

Question 4

Which of the following statements are correct regarding Euler’s equation & Navier Stokes equation. 
(1). Euler equation consists only pressure and gravity terms.
(2). Bernoulli’s equation consists of pressure, inertia and gravity terms.
(3). Navier stoke equation is energy conservation equation.
(4). Euler equation is a momentum conservation equation.

Question 5

To measure the pressure difference between two points, a two liquid column enlarged-ends manometer is used. The diameter of the basin is 15 times higher than that of the U-tube. If the U-tube reading is 20 mm then the pressure difference (in Pa) between 1 and 2 is (take g =10 m/s2)

Question 6

Which one is correct for Bernoulli’s equation
1) For a rotational flow Bernoulli’s equation can be applied at any point in a flow.
2) It is applicable for steady rotational incompressible flow.
3) It is not applicable within a boundary layer region.
4) For rotational flow it can be applied along a streamline.

Question 7

If the velocity distribution in a turbulent boundary layer isthe displacement thickness is given by n. Then what is the value of n?

Question 8

A smooth flat plate of size 2m × 2m is kept immersed in water that moves with a velocity of 0.4 m/s. Find the thickness of the boundary layer at a distance of 0.75 m from the leading edge. Take the kinematic viscosity of water to be 1×10-4 m2/s.

Question 9

Water flows over a flat plate at a free stream velocity of 0.15m/s. Take. There is no pressure gradient and laminar boundary layer is 6mm thick. Assume velocity profile as
for the flow conditions stated above, calculate the skin friction coefficient.

Question 10

N number of pipes are connected in a parallel connection, all having the same diameter of 200mm and same length L. These pipes are to be replaced by a single pipe with Leq=L, the diameter of such a pipe will be 348.22mm. Neglecting all minor losses determine N.
