Example Problem: In figure below, water at 10°C is flowing from section 1 to section 2. At section 1, which is 25 mm in diameter, the gage pressure is 345 kPa and the velocity of flow is 3.0 m/s. Section 2, which is 50 mm in diameter, is 2.0 m above section 1. Assuming there are no energy losses in the system, calculate the pressure P2. Total head

Transcribed Image Text:Example Problem: In figure below, water at 10°C is flowing from section 1 to section 2.
At section 1, which is 25 mm in diameter, the gage pressure is 345 kPa and the velocity
of flow is 3.0 m/s. Section 2, which is 50 mm in diameter, is 2.0 m above section 1.
Assuming there are no energy losses in the system, calculate the pressure P2.
