In the flow shown in the figure below, water leaves a large elevated tank and travels through tube 1 (D1 = 10 cm) which divides into two smaller tubes open to the atmosphere (D2 = 3 cm and D3 = 6.5 cm). The pressure indicated by the pressure gauge on the tank is 10 kPa. Determine the flow velocity in tube 1 considering the ideal fluid.
Refer to the flow shown in the figure. The velocity before the contraction is 1.51m/s. Given: h=0.20m D1=0.103m D2=0.057m Determine the height of the fluid in the manometer, H, in meters
A pump draws water from reservoir A and lifts it to reservoir B as shown in the figure.

An orifice meter with a 5 cm diameter is used to measure the flow rate of liquid. Under a head of 4 m, the velocity of the liquid at vena contracta is 7.5 m/s. If the actual discharge through the pipe is 8 l/s, calculate the coefficients of velocity, discharge, and contraction. Answers should be : Cv= 0.85 Cd= 0.46 Cc= 0.54
A duct of diameter 0.8 m carries gas (p = 1.3 kg/m³). At one point, the duct diameter reduces to 0.74 m. Starting from Bernoulli's equation, estimate the velocity of flow in the reduced section, and the mass flow rate (=pQ) through the duct if the pressure difference between a point upstream of the reduction and another point at the reduction is equivalent to 30 mm of water.
The water flow rate in the pipe will be measured using the pitot tube system given in the figure. At point 1, the velocity is zero and represents the stationary point. Since there is mercury with a density of 13600 kg/m3 in the manometer and the height of the manometer is read 0.06, calculate the volumetric flow rate of the water flowing in the pipe with a diameter of 0.2 m. (ρwater = 1000 kg/m3)
