ENGINEERING
A compressed air tank in a service station has a volume of 10 $\mathrm{ft}^{3}$ . It contains air at $70^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$ and 150 psia. How many tubeless tires can it fill to 44.7 psia at $70^\circ \text{F}$ if each tire has a volume of 1.5 $\mathrm{ft}^{3}$ and the compresed air tank is not refilled? The tank air temperature remains constant at $70^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$ because of heat transfer through the tank's large surface area.

A small Pelton wheel is used to power an oscillating lawn sprinkler. The arithmetic mean radius of the turbine is 1 in., and the exit angle of the blade is $135^{\circ}$ relative to the blade motion. Water is supplied through a single 0.20-in.-diameter nozzle at a speed of 50 ft/s. Determine the flowrate, the maximum torque developed, and the maximum power developed by this turbine.

On a cruise ship, passengers complain about the noise emanating from the ship’s propellers (probably due to turbulent flow effects between the propeller and the ship). You have been hired to find out the source of this noise. You will study the flow pattern around the propellers and have decided to use a 1:9-scale water tank. If the ship’s propellers rotate at 100 rpm, estimate the model propeller rotation speed if (a) the Froude number or (b) the Reynolds number is the governing dimensionless group. Which is most likely to lead to the best modeling?

Consider an irrotational, incompressible, axisymmetric (∂/∂θ = 0) flow in (r, z) coordinates. Does a stream function exist? If so, does it satisfy Laplace’s equation? Are lines of constant ψ equal to the flow streamlines? Does a velocity potential exist? If so, does it satisfy Laplace’s equation? Are lines of constant Φ everywhere perpendicular to the ψ lines?
