A 0.4 m-diameter pipe bend shown in the diagram is carrying crude oil (S = 0.65) with a steady flow with
velocity of 3 m/s. The bend has an angle of 30° and lies in a vertical plane. The volume of oil in the bend is 1.2
m3, and the empty weight of the bend is 4 kN. Assume the pressure along the centerline of the bend is constant
with a value of 85 kPa gage. Water density = 1000 kg/m3, g= 9.81 m/s?, Patm = 100 kPa, frictionless flow. Answer

Consider a length of pipe bent into a U-shape. The inside diameter of thepipe is 0.5 m. Air enters one leg of the pipe at a mean velocity of 100 m/sand exits the other leg at the same magnitude of velocity, but moving inthe opposite direction. The pressure of the flow at the inlet and exit is theambient pressure of the surroundings. Calculate the magnitude anddirection of the force exerted on the pipe by the airflow. The air densityis 1.23 kg/m3.
