(1) In Tinyland, houses are less than a foot high! The rainfall is laminar! The drainpipe shown in the figure below is only 2 mm in diameter. Take water density p = 998 kg/m² and dynamic viscosity u = 0.001 kg/(m.s) (a) When the gutter is full, simplify the steady flow energy equation by neglecting the gutter velocity and using the head loss due to a laminar flow, determine the draining velocity V and draining flow rate Q. (b) The gutter is designed for a sudden rainstorm of up to 5 mm per hour. For this condition, what is the maximum roof area that can be drained successfully? (c) What is the Reynolds number Rea?
