Amodel of a high-rise office building at 1/550 scale is tested in a wind tunnel to estimate the pressures and forces on the full-scale structure. the wind-tunnel air speed is 20 m/s at 20°c and atmospheric pressure, and the full-scale structure is expected to withstand winds of 200 km/h (10°c). if the extreme values of the pressure coefficient are found to be 1.0, –2.7, and –0.8 on the windward wall, side wall, and leeward wall of the model, respectively, what corresponding pressures could be expected to act on the prototype? if the lateral wind force (wind force on building normal to wind direction) was measured as 20 n in the model, what lateral force might be expected in the prototype in the 200 km/h wind?

At steady state, air at 200 kpa, 325 k, and mass flow rate of 0.5 kg/s enters an insulated duct having differing inlet and exit cross-sectional areas. the inlet cross-sectional area is 6 cm2. at the duct exit, the pressure of the air is 100 kpa and the velocity is 250 m/s. neglecting potential energy effects and modeling air as an 1.008 kj/kg k, determine ideal gas with constant cp = (a) the velocity of the air at the inlet, in m/s. (b) the temperature of the air at the exit, in k. (c) the exit cross-sectional area, in cm2
