Problem 1.

19 [Difficulty: 1]

Given: Viscosity, power, and specific energy data in certain units

Find: Convert to different units

Solution:
Using data from tables (e.g. Table G.2)
2
⎛ 1 ⋅ ft ⎞
2 2 ⎜ 2
m m 12 ft
(a) 1⋅ = 1⋅ ×⎜ = 10.76 ⋅
s s ⎝ 0.0254⋅ m ⎠ s

1 ⋅ hp
(b) 100 ⋅ W = 100 ⋅ W × = 0.134 ⋅ hp
746 ⋅ W

kJ kJ 1000⋅ J 1 ⋅ Btu 0.454 ⋅ kg Btu


(c) 1⋅ = 1⋅ × × × = 0.43⋅
kg kg 1 ⋅ kJ 1055⋅ J 1 ⋅ lbm lbm
