stationary splitter,
6-27E A 100-ft/s water jet is moving in the
x-direction at 18 ft/s. The stream hits a
such that half of the flow is diverted upward at 45° and the
other half is directed downward, and both streams have a
final speed of 18 ft/s. Disregarding gravitational effects, and
approximating the flow as uniform at any cross section,
determine the x- and z-components of the force required to
hold the splitter in place against the water force.
