Chemical Engineering Sample Exams: For the New Breadth/Depth Exams, First Edition

w = 0 U A = 0 (large cross section of tank)
F = 28.5 ft given. ? A = ? B (incompressible fluid)
Bernoulli equation reduces to Z A - Z B = F +
= 28.5 + 1.5 = 30 ft
Height from the bottom of tank = 30 - 10 = 20 ft
Answer is (C)
Bernoulli equation reduces to: w = F + (Z B - Z A) + ![]()
Velocity through 2" pipe = 3(3.068/2.067) 2 = 6.61 ft/s

? w = 12 + (40 - 10) + 0.68 = 42.68 ft
Pressure developed =
= 29.7 psia
Therefore, pressure indicated by gage = 29.7 - 14.7 = 15 psig
Answer is (D)
The sketch shows the conditions of the problem.
P A = P B ? A = ? B U A = 0 cross sectional area of tank very large
? The Bernoulli equation reduces to
Z A + W - F = Z B + ![]()

Z A = Z B +
+ F - W
F = 1.5 ft Z B = 20 ft
U B = 80/(7.48 x 60 x 0.0233) = 7.65 ft/s
= 7.65 2/64.4 = 0.91 ft
= 0.25 m =
= 11.12 lb/s
W P = 0.25(550)/11.12 = 12.36 ft
Therefore, Z
