The reynolds number is a dimensionless group defined for a fluid flowing in a pipe as re durho/μ whered is pipe diameter, u is fluid velocity, rho is fluid density, and μ is fluid viscosity. when the value of the reynolds number is less than about 2100, the flow is laminar—that is, the fluid flows in smooth streamlines. for reynolds numbers above 2100, the flow is turbulent, characterized by a great deal of agitation. liquid methyl ethyl ketone (mek) flows through a pipe with an inner diameter of 2.067 inches at an average velocity of 0.48 ft/s. at the fluid temperature of 20°c the density of liquid mek is 0.805 g/cm3 and the viscosity is 0.43 centipoise [1 cp 1: 00 103 kg/ m s]. without using a calculator, determine whether the flow is laminar or turbulent. show your calculations.

Aheat pump using refrigerant-134a heats a house by using underground water at 8°c as the heat source. the house is losing heat at a rate of 60,000 kj/h. the refrigerant enters the compressor at 280 kpa and 0°c, and it leaves at 1 mpa and 60°c. the refrigerant exits the condenser at 30°c. determine: (a) the power input to the heat pump, (b) the rate of heat absorption from the water, and (c) the increase in electric power input if an electric resistance heater is used instead of a heat pump
