II B.Tech.(CCC) Supplimentary Examinations, June 2009 FLUID MECHANICS AND HYDRAULIC MACHINERY (Civil Engineering) Time: 3 hours Max Marks: 100 Answer any FIVE Questions All Questions carry equal marks
1. (a) Dierentiate between simple and dierential type of manometers. And also express pressure intensity of 7.5 kg (f)/cm2 in all pressure units. Take the barometer reading as 76 cm of mercury. (b) Find the depth of a point below water surface in sea where pressure intensity is 1.006 MN/m2 . Specic gravity of water is 1.025. [12+8] 2. (a) Dene and distinguish between i. Steady and unsteady ow, ii. Uniform and non uniform ow, iii. Rotational and irrotational ow.
(b) Dene and distinguish between streamline, path line and streak line. 3. (a) Explain velocity distribution in various channel section. (b) Dene Natural channels and Articial channels.
4. (a) Explain the terms: model, prototype, model analysis, hydraulic similitude. [10] (b) Explain the dierent types of hydraulic similarities that must exist between a prototype and its model. [10] 5. Find the ratios of displacement thickness to momentum thickness and momentum thickness to energy thickness for the velocity distribution in the boundary layer u = 2 (y/ ) - (y/ )2 given by U where u = Velocity in boundary layer at a distance, U= Free- stream velocity, = Boundary layer thickness. [20] 6. A jet of water having a velocity of 55m/sec is deected by a vane moving at 5m/sec in a direction at 350 to the direction of jet. The water leaves the vane normally to the motion of the vane. Draw the inlet and outlet velocity triangles and nd out the vane angles for no shock at entry and exit. Take the relative velocity at the exit as 0.85 times the relative velocity at the entrance. [20] 7. (a) What are unit quantities. Dene the unit quantities for a turbine. Why are they important? [10] (b) A water turbine develops 175 hp at 230r.p.m. under a head of 16m. Determine the scale ratio and the speed of a similar machine which will generate 900 h.p working under a head of 25 m. [10] 1 of 2

8. (a) State the dierence between a closed, semi open and open impellers.
(b) A single stage centrifugal pump with impeller diameter of 30cm rotates at 2000 RPM and lifts 3m3 of water per minute to a height of 30 meters, with an eciency of 75% . Find the number of stages and the diameter of each impeller of a similar multistage pump to lift 5m3 of water per minute a height of 200m when rotating at 1500 rpm. [10]
