(See if you have strong skills in chemical engineering calculations) Force analysis of bubbles in pipelines
Thread Content
There is a bubble in a pipe filled with solution; the pipe is in a zigzag shape, and the two ends of this zigzag pipe are two tanks whose liquid levels remain constant. Determine what the difference in liquid levels at these two ends must be for the bubble to be able to be carried out of the pipe through siphoning The inner diameter of the pipe is 16.8 (standard De25 PPR pipe). The fluid in the pipe has a density 1.5 times that of water, and it is assumed that there are no losses due to fluid resistance in the pipe. This is a problem given to me by my supervisor; please help me calculate it. I hope the calculation will be as thorough as possible. Everyone with expertise, please take a look
Brothers and sisters, we can’t let it sink! Please help, guys! I still need to complete my task……
Here’s a hint for you: the rising speed of a bubble in a vertical tube is less than (or equal to) the flow speed of the liquid inside the tube; this allows the bubble to be carried upward. You’ll need to work through the calculations yourself to figure out the details, haha.
