Question
Water from a supply having a total head of 100 ft is used in the jet of an ejector,shown in the following figure, in order to lift 10 ft3/s of water from another source (at a lower level) that has a total head of -5 ft. The nozzle area of the jet pipe is An = 0.05 ft2 and theannular area of the suction line at section 1 is Aa = 0.5 ft2
(a) Find the pressure at section 1, i.e., P1.
(b) Using the mass balance and energy balance (i.e., the Bernoulli Equation) to find
the volumetric flow rate from the 100-ft head supply.
(c) Using the momentum balance, determine the total delivery head for the ejector at
section 2.
