In all honesty, I've got reason to suspect that these stated/given values might not be accurate.
Monday in addition to a physical demonstration, I'll be taking an ultrasonic sensor to the pipe bank to get the flow. There's no infrastructure for that in place currently.
I'll be sure to get...
I can't be sure, but the outlet diameter is 3/4" with a flow rate of 350 gpm. Pressure unknown, but above atmospheric. Would a stream in those conditions behave like, say, a running faucet (i.e. converge) or spread? This I'm not sure of.
On Monday I'm going to have a demonstration of the flow...
So far I've tackled it a few different ways.
First approach is to model it as an expansion into a pipe of diameter equal to the desired coverage, but I'm thinking that methodology is flawed. Essentially, Q1*A1 = Q2*A2.
Second is to examine the system in two dimensions, but I've yet to be able...
Hey folks, I'm back with a new question.
If I have a pipe of known diameter, with a known volume of water at a known pressure discharging downwards into atmosphere, how can I calculate the radius of its "spread". That is, how can I find what area beneath the discharging pipe is being covered...
The purpose of the bowl is to distribute hot water evenly over a material being heat conditioned. It's to be used in conditioning blocks of wood for production of veneer and plywood. If my explanation doesn't make sense, which is more than likely...
Of course!
Top-down view of the bowl I know the original post specifies 8 holes, but this is a stand-in I have on hand.
Side view of the assembly (note: the two vertical pieces that extend from the pipe to the bowl itself are supports attaching it to the ceiling, welded on either side of...
I'm facing a problem with that rhyming title up there.
The design is thus: a downward-facing, vertical pipe with known constant flow and diameter has water flowing out of it, into a short (15cm-91cm) free fall. At the end of that fall is a bowl of indeterminate depth made of steel with holes...
