You are working as a trainee engineering in a company ABC, is the leading manufacturing company for different sizes of pipes, valves and nozzles for the projects up to 20MW. Your manager has asked you to determine the head losses accumulated by a fluid when flowing in a pipeline for various applications given in figure 1.la and Figure 1.1b. In figure 1.la the surfaces of the two reservoirs have a difference in the level of 20 m and figure 1.1b the discharge of the nozzle experiences a sudden contraction in the area. The area at section 1 is 0.004 m² and at section 2 is 0.002 m². The inlet gauge pressure o the nozzle is 1000 kPa and the velocity is 8 m/s where the outlet gage pressure of the nozzle is 1055 kPa.

Question
Transcribed Image Text:You are working as a trainee engineering in a company ABC, is the leading manufacturing company for different sizes of pipes,
valves and nozzles for the projects up to 20MW. Your manager has asked you to determine the head losses accumulated by a fluid
when flowing in a pipeline for various applications given in figure 1.la and Figure 1.1b.
In figure 1.la the surfaces of the two reservoirs have a difference in the level of 20 m and figure 1.1b the discharge of the nozzle
experiences a sudden contraction in the area. The area at section 1 is 0.004 m² and at section 2 is 0.002 m². The inlet gauge pressure of
the nozzle is 1000 kPa and the velocity is 8 m/s where the outlet gage pressure of the nozzle is 1055 kPa.

Figure 1.la
To have a complete understanding of this, determine parameters such as an area of
60mm bore pipe, mean velocity of the fluid and pressure at point 1 of a flowing
luid using Bernoulli's Equation for figure 1.2 when the flow rate is 2.8 dm³/s and
the loss of pressure due to friction is 100kPa.
