A duct of 0.45 m diameter and 90 m long leads from a fan discharge chamber where the pressure is 15 mm of water to a plenum chamber where the pressure is 10 mm of water. In order to increase the flow, two alternatives are considered. One is to lay a duct of 0.3 m diameter and 90 m long in parallel with the duct of 0.45 m diameter. The other is to increase the diameter of 0.45 m diameter duct for the last 60 m length. Calculate the increased diameter so that this method gives the same flow as the 0.45 m and 0.3 m ducts in parallel. Assume that the pressures in the fan chamber and plenum chamber are unaffected by changes in the flow and consider duct friction losses only. The friction factor may be taken as 0.0o55. 6. A 0.3 m diameter circular duct carries standard air at a velocity of 360 m/min. It is replaced by a rectangular duct having the same pressure loss per unit length due to friction.

The volume flow rate is 150 L/min and the pressure before the enlargement is 500.062 kPa. NB: OD = Outside Diameter, Wall refers to the pipe’s thickness (t) Hints: Obtain the specific weight of water for the given temperature from Appendix A (Table A.1). Obtain the resistance coefficient (K) for sudden enlargement from Table 10.3B in chapter 10.
