Consider a reducer with inlet and outlet diameters of D1 and D2, respectively. The respective velocities are U1 and U2, as shown below. The fluid of density, ρ exits at an angle θ with respect to the horizontal plane. The input is along the horizontal plane. Assume no viscous effects, i.e., μ = 0. Calculate the (i) vertical, and (ii) horizontal forces to hold the reducer stationary. Consider the following: • Mass balance • Energy balance • Momentum balance in horizontal direction • Momentum balance in vertical direction

Consider a reducer with inlet and outlet diameters of D1 and D2, respectively. The respective
velocities are U1 and U2, as shown below. The fluid of density, ρ exits at an angle θ with respect
to the horizontal plane. The input is along the horizontal plane. Assume no viscous effects, i.e., μ
= 0.
Calculate the (i) vertical, and (ii) horizontal forces to hold the reducer stationary.
Consider the following:
• Mass balance
• Energy balance
• Momentum balance in horizontal direction
• Momentum balance in vertical direction
