Question

The thin-plate orifi ce in Fig. P3.85 causes a large pressure
drop. For 20° C water fl ow at 500 gal/min, with pipe D =
10 cm and orifi ce d = 6 cm, p ₁ - p ₂ ≈ 145 kPa. If the wall
friction is negligible, estimate the force of the water on the
orifi ce plate.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Draw the figure.

Here p is the pressure, A is the area, m is the mass flow rate, F is the force of the water on the orifice plate, t is the shear stress on the pipe wall and it is equal to zero.

V₁ = V₂
