Mass velocity in case of steady flow and through a constant cross-section conduit is independent of the _________________?

Correct answer: C. Both A. & B.

  • A. Temperature
  • B. Pressure
  • C. Both A. & B.
  • D. Neither A. nor B.

Explanation

Mass velocity is mass flow rate per unit cross-sectional area, G = m/A. For steady flow through a constant area, the mass flow rate remains constant, so G is independent of both pressure and temperature, even though density and velocity individually may change.
