    This document is a quiz reviewer for a fluid mechanics and hydraulics (CIVFLUM) course containing 3 sample problems and their solutions. Problem 1 involves calculating the maximum horizontal acceleration of a water-filled tank before spillage occurs, as well as the accelerating force on the liquid mass. Problem 2 requires computing the amount of water spilled in liters when a 2/3 full cylindrical vessel is rotated at 90 rpm. Problem 3 asks the student to determine the angular speed and amount of water remaining to uncover a 1m diameter area at the bottom of a fully filled vertical cylindrical vessel after rotation. References for fluid mechanics and hydraulics textbooks are provided.

    CIVFLUM Quiz 2 Reviewer


    Prepared by: Richerene Caparos
    1. An open rectangular tank mounted on a truck is 5m long, 2m wide and 2.5 m high is filled with
    water to a depth of 2m. (a) What maximum horizontal acceleration can be imposed on the tank
    without spilling any water and (b) determine the accelerating force on the liquid mass? (c) if the
    acceleration is increased to 6 m/s2, how much water is spilled out?
    Solution :
    a.

    The figure shows the water level under maximum a when no water is spilled out.
    tan = 0.5/2.5 = 0.2
    tan = a/g = 0.2
    a = 0.2 (9.81)
    a = 1.962 m/s2
    b.
    Accelerating Force, F = Ma
    Mass, M =
    Mass, M = 1000[5 x 2 x2]
    Mass, M = 20,000 kg
    Accelerating Force, F = 20,000 x 1.962
    Accelerating Force, F = 39,240 N
    Or
    F = Frear wall Ffront wall
    ]
    F = 9.81 ( [
    ( )[
    F = 39.24 kN
    c.
    when a = 6 m/s2
    tan = a/g = 6/9.81
    = 31.45o
    x = 2.5 cot 31.45o
    x = 4.0875 < 5m
    Vleft = (4.0875)(2.5)(2)
    Vleft = 10.22 m3

    Voriginal = (2)(2)(5)
    Voriginal = 20 m3
    Vspilled = Voriginal Vleft
    Vspilled = 20 10.22
    Vspilled = 9.78 m3
    2. An open cylindrical vessel 1.2 m in diameter and 2.1 m high is 2/3 full of water. Compute the
    amount of water in liters that will be spilled out if the vessel is rotated about its vertical axis at a
    constant angular speed of 90 rpm.

    Solution:
    h=

    h= 1.63 m
    h/2 = 0.815 > 0.7 m (some liquid spilled)
    Vspilled = Vair(final) Vair(initial)
    Vspilled = (0.6)2(1.63) (0.6)2(0.7)
    Vspilled = 0.13 m3 x 1000 lit/m3
    Vspilled = 130 liters
    3. An open vertical cylindrical vessel, 2m n diameter and 4 m high is filled with water to the top. If
    rotated on its own vertical axis in order to discharge a quantity of water to uncover a circular area at
    the bottom of the vessel 1 m in diameter: (a) Determine the angular speed in rpm, and (b) how much
    water is left in the cylinder after rotation?

    Solution:
    a.
    h=
    solve for h (by squared property)

    h - 4 = 0.25h
    0.75h = 5
    h = 5.33 m
    5.33 =

    b.
    Vleft = Vcylinder - Vfrustum of paraboloid
    Vleft =
    Vleft = 4.716 m3
