Question
C2. A conical tube is fixed vertically with its smaller end upwards and it forms a part of
the pipeline. The velocity at the smaller end is 5.3 m/s and at the larger end is 2.9 m/s.
The length of the conical tube is 1.2 m and the flow rate of the water is 125 liters/s. The
pressure at the smaller end is equivalent to a head of 8.5 m of water.
Considering the following two cases:
(1) Neglecting friction,(without head loss) determine (i) the diameter at the smaller end
in meter, (ii) the diameter at the larger end in meter, and (iii) the pressure at the larger end
of the tube in m of water.
(2) If a head loss (with head loss)in the tube,h= 0.0153(V1-V2)2 , where V1 is the
velocity at the smaller end and V2 is the velocity at the larger end, determine (iv) the
head loss in m of water and (v) the pressure at the larger end of the tube in m of
water.
(Enter only the values by referring to the unit given. Also, upload the handwritten
answers in the link provided)
(i) the diameter at the smaller end in meter
(ii) the diameter at the larger end in meter
(iii) the pressure head at the larger end of the tube in m of water
(iv) the head loss in m of water
(v) the pressure head at the larger end of the tube in m of water.
