Question

Suppose a u-bend is redirecting a flow of water. The water enters flowing to the right at 10 m/s. The u-bend completely reverses the direction of the flow, so the water leaves flowing to the left. The area of the u-bend is constant, a circular cross-section of 0.12 m. The pressure in the fluid is measured at 50 kPa. The length of the u-bend is 0.46 m. Find the force, including magnitude and direction, to hold the u-bend in place.

Expert Solution

Step 1: Determine the given variables

Given data:

The velocity of water is $V equals 10 space m divided by s$

The diameter of pipe is constant $d equals 0.12 space m space equals 12 space c m$

The pressure of the fluid is $P equals 50 space k P a$

The length of the u bend pipe is $l equals 0.46 space m space equals space 46 space c m$

To find:

The force, including magnitude and direction, to hold the u-bend in place.
