Water flows at low speed through a circular tube with inside diameter of 2 in. A smoothly contoured body of 1.5 in. diameter is held in the end of the tube where the water discharges to atmosphere. Neglect frictional effects and assume uniform velocity profiles at each section. Determine the pressure measured by the gauge and the force required to hold the body.

- A 0.7 m-diameter pipe bend shown in the diagram is carrying crude oil (S = 0.6) with a steady flow with velocity of 3.5 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 m?, 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. Answer the following: %3! Bolted flange Flow 30arrow_forwardWater in a vertical (i.e., gravitational force of the fluid in the nozzle plays a role, and the elevation change in the Bernoulli's Equation, if needed, should be considered) pipe is charging from an attached bend nozzle into the atmosphere as shown in Fig. 5. The nozzle's weight is 20 kg. The pipe and the nozzle are connected by a flange. The gage pressure of the flow at the flange is 35 kPa when the discharge rate is 0.1 m³/s. The volume of the bending nozzle is 0.012 m³. Calculate the vertical component of the anchoring forcing required to hold the nozzle in place and determine its direction. G= 9.81 m/s².

A pipe 100 mm bore diameter carries oil of density 900 kg/m3 at a rate of 4 kg/s. The pipe reduces to 60 mm bore diameter and rises 120 m in altitude. The pressure at this point is atmospheric (zero gauge). Assuming no frictional losses, determine: i. The volume/s (4.44 dm³/s) ii. The velocity at each section (0.566 m/s and 1.57 m/s) iii. The pressure at the lower end. (1.06 MPa)arrow_forward

The tailwater is 14 7 ft from the center of the turbine. The intake measures 35 in and the pressure is measured by mercury u-tube manometer which measures 15.566 ft in the intake and 3.00 ft in the discharge side. The datum of the scale is at 5.62 ft below that of the center of the turbine. The brake power output was 767.8 kw. Losses is measured to be 20.2 KW.

- Water is transported in a pipe, at an average flow rate of Q = 50 L/s. Calculate the pressure difference p between the 2 manometers. We can assume that the energy losses by friction are negligible, and that there are only singular energy losses (be careful to identify ALL the singularities).
