Question
A tunnel with the flow rate qy = 2.5 L/s. See the figure, the diameter d, = 50 mm and
d2 = 25 mm . The pressure at cross section 1 is p1 = 9807 Pa. A tube connects the tunnel
to a open container which contains the water at cross section 2. The density of water p =
1000 kg/m³. The gravitational acceleration g = 9.81 N/kg.
Calculate the height difference h. (The friction loss is negligible.)
