In a constant-head permeability test, the length of the specimen is 200 mm and the cross sectional area is 78.5 cm2. If k = 2.1 x 10^-2 cm/sec, and a rate of flow of 130 cm3/min has to be maintained during the test, what should be the head difference across the specimen?

Different types of steels contain different elements that alter the characteristics of the steel. for each of the following elements, explain what the element does when alloyed with steel.

Amixture of slurry and mud is to be pumped through a horizontal pipe of diameter 500 mm. the fluid behaves as a bingham plastic with a yield stress of 30 pa and viscosity 0.04 pa. s. describe the effects of the shear stress through a transverse section of the pipe by plotting the variation in shear stress and velocity profile: (i) just before the slurry starts to move (ii) as the slurry flows when the pressure gradient is double that in part (i)
