Fluid Mechanics
Time: 3 Hours Max Marks: 75
Note: Answer all questions from Section-A at one place in the same order
Answer any five questions from Section-B
14. The frictional pressure drop for flow of a fluid through a long, straight, circular pipe
depends upon the length, ‘l’, diameter, ‘d’ and the average height of the wall roughness, ‘e’ of
the pipe, the average velocity, ‘u’, the density and the viscosity of the fluid. Use Buckingham
method to make a dimensional analysis of the system. (10)
15. Derive Ergun equation to calculate the pressure drop through packed bed. (10)
16. (a) Explain particulate and bubbling fluidization (6)
(b) Write the applications of fluidization (4)
17. Explain the construction and working of a centrifugal pump. (10)
