Tire Pressure and Fluid Dynamics Calculations

The document contains 4 tutorial problems: 1) Determine the pressure rise and amount of air to bleed off to restore original pressure of 210 kPa for a 0.025 m3 tire when air temperature rises from 25°C to 50°C. 2) Calculate the horizontal force needed to move a block at 1.0 m/s on an inclined surface, and the percent reduction in force from an applied oil film. 3) Determine the Mach numbers at the inlet and exit of an adiabatic nozzle for carbon dioxide entering at 1400 K and 60 m/s and exiting at 400 K. 4) Calculate the Mach numbers at the inlet and exit of a heat exchanger for nitrogen entering

Tutorial 2

1. The pressure in an automobile tire depends on the temperature of the air in the tire.
When the air temperature is 25°C, the pressure gage reads 210 kPa. If the volume of
the tire is 0.025 m3, determine the pressure rise in the tire when the air temperature in
the tire rises to 50°C. Also, determine the amount of air that must be bled off to restore
pressure to its original value at this temperature. Assume the atmospheric pressure to
be 100 kPa.

2. A 50cm x 30cm x 20cm block weighing 160 N is to be moved at a constant velocity of


1.0 m/s on an inclined surface with a friction coefficient of 0.27. (a) Determine the force
F that needs to be applied in the horizontal direction. (b) If a 0.60 mm-thick oil film with a
dynamic viscosity of 0.012 Pa.s is applied between the block and inclined surface,
determine the percent reduction in the required force.

3. Carbon dioxide enters an adiabatic nozzle at 1400 K with a velocity of 60 m/s and
leaves at 400 K. Assuming constant specific heats at room temperature, determine the
Mach number (a) at the inlet and (b) at the exit of the nozzle.

4. Nitrogen enters a steady-flow heat exchanger at 150 kPa, 10°C, and 100 m/s, and it
receives heat in the amount of 120 kJ/kg as it flows through it. Nitrogen leaves the heat
exchanger at 100 kPa with a velocity of 200 m/s. Determine the Mach number of the
nitrogen at the inlet and the exit of the heat exchanger.
