    Model pressure loss vs time for air in a cylinder w/ hole

    A lot of the stuff on the page is based on comparisons of area, which don't apply in my case (the hole is not on a circular face)

    Model pressure loss vs time for air in a cylinder w/ hole

    Nothing yet, I'm not sure how to proceed. I want to see if my process is sound, and additionally if this equation I found can be applied to situations other than flow through a pipe.

    Model pressure loss vs time for air in a cylinder w/ hole

    I've edited my post. No effusion, the initial pressure difference is about 1 atmosphere across a 15 mm hole, in a 26 inch tall/5.5 inch wide cylinder.

    Model pressure loss vs time for air in a cylinder w/ hole

    Related to an engineering project I will be working on. The situation is that essentially I will have a closed cylinder (5.5 in x 26 in) with a small 15mm hole on the side (not on a circular face), which allows the air inside to be at equilibrium pressure/temperature with the outside. Then a...

    Finding Jordan canonical form of these matrices

    How do I find the other one? For the matrix U, I don't know how I would find another eigenvector for what it is, and U2 is the zero matrix. 2 was also the only eigenvalue I was able to find. Not on any of my assignments, but how would I do it for a matrix with multiple blocks but only one...

    Finding Jordan canonical form of these matrices

    Homework Statement For each matrix A, I need to find a basis for each generalized eigenspace of ## L_A ## consisting of a union of disjoint cycles of generalized eigenvectors. Then I need to find the Jordan canonical form of A. The matrices are: ## a) \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 1\\ -1 & 3...
