A 6-cm-diameter horizontal water pipe expands gradually to a 9-cm- diameter pipe. The walls of the expansion section are angled 30° from the horizontal. The average velocity and pressure of water before the expansion section are 7 m/s and 150 Ka, respectively. Determine the pressure (KPa) in the larger-diameter pipe. 6 cm 9 cm Water 7 m/s 150 kPa

A 6-cm-diameter horizontal water pipe expands gradually to a 9-cm-diameter pipe. The walls of the expansion section are angled 30° from the horizontal. The average velocity and pressure of water before the expansion section are 7 m/s and 150 Ka, respectively. Determine the pressure (KPa) in the larger-diameter pipe.

A 6-cm-diameter horizontal water pipe expands gradually to a 9-cm-
diameter pipe. The walls of the expansion section are angled 30°

Expansion:
K, - 0.02 for e- 20
K, - 0.04 for e - 45°
K- 0.07 for e- 60
Gradual Expansion and Contraction (based on the velocity in the smaller-diameter pipe)
Contraction (for e - 20):
K, - 0.30 for diD - 0.2
K, -0.25 for d'D - 0.4
