Example
Liquid versus Vapor flow
Liquids –
Incompressible flow
Vapors –
Compressible flow
Kinetic energy term
is negligible
Physical properties
(density) constant
Energy from
pressure converted
to kinetic energy
Temperature,
pressure, density all
change when going
through a hole or
down a pipe
Vapor flow though holes & pipes
Vapor flow through holes
Throttling release

Non choked or subsonic
Choked, critical or sonic
Steady flow of vapor through pipes
Example
Vapor flow through holes
Throttling flow
Small cracks – large frictional loses
Not much energy due to pressure is
converted to kinetic
Models require detailed information on
physical structure of leak
Throttling flow
A throttling device is a valve or crack or
porous material with high resistance to
flow that results in a large pressure
drop.

Throttling flow
Hence the process is isenthalpic
Consider the temperature as a function of
pressure and enthalpy

Example
Choked flow through holes
As you lower the down stream pressure (or
increase upstream pressure) the velocity
increases until it reaches a critical velocity,
the sonic velocity, or speed of sound.
After that the velocity becomes independent
of pressure. Downstream conditions no
longer have an effect on velocity.

Vapor flow through pipes
There are two cases which we can derive
(with much work) relationships for flow of
vapors through pipes
Adiabatic – which assumes well insulated walls, no
energy loss to surroundings
Isothermal – which assumes constant wall
temperature (submerged pipe)

The book doesn’t even attempt to go
through the derivations, just gives the
equations.
As before, we need to consider both
nonchoked and choked flow.
Adiabatic vapor flow through pipes
For most problems you know
L – length of pipe
d – diameter of pipe
T1, P1 – upstream temperature, pressure
P2 – downstream pressure
To get mass flow rate Qm (mass/time) from
G, mass flux, (mass/area*time) use Qm=G*A
Adiabatic non choked flows in pipes
1) Find pipe roughness from Table 4-1
2) Determine f from Eq. 4-27

5) Calculate Reynolds number to verify Eq 427 is valid
Adiabatic Choked flows in pipes
1) Find roughness from Table 4-1
2) Determine f from Eq 4-27
3) Determine Ma1 from Eq 4-57 (use 4-46
to get Y1) (usually trial & error)
