Problem 10.1 Water flows steadily through a 180° reducing pipe bend as shown in the figure (notice the transition from a larger diameter at section 1 to a smaller diameter at section 2). The atmospheric pressure outside the piping system is Patm = 100 kPa. The pipe bend is connected to the two pipes by flanges. The flanges are held together by flange bolts. Assume the density of water is 1000 kg/m³. At the inlet to the bend, the pressure is P₁ = 350 kPa, the pipe diameter is D₁ = 25 cm, and the water velocity is V₁ = 2.2 m/s. At the outlet of the bend, the pressure is P₂ = 120 kPa and the pipe diameter is D₂ = 8 cm. The weight of the pipe bend and the water in the bend may be neglected for this analysis. 1 5 G 2 (a) Determine the velocity of the water at the outlet (i.e., at Section 2). Hint: Use CoM principles (and don't forget to draw a system diagram!). (b) Draw appropriate system diagrams to determine the total force acting on the flanges (to keep the system in equilibrium).
