A pipe set up is given as seen in the figure. The fluid is oil with a specific gravity of 850 kg/m³. The pressure at the exit is atmospheric pressure. The diameter at the entrance is 6.4 cm and the diameter at the exit is 2.2 cm. The volume rate of flow is given as 0.0315 m³/s and thegage pressure at the entrance is 250 kPa. Ignore weight of the fluid and the pipe. Determine the x-component of the force applied at the bolts at section 1. Assume that the atmospheric pressure is 1013 mb. 40° 2
In a horizontal pipe water flows at a rate of 9.1 L/s. Here, the pipe has two sections, one with a diameter of 10.16 cm and the other with a diameter of 5.08 cm, with a gradual smooth reducing section. In this case, a mercury manometer is used to measure the pressure difference. If friction is negligible how would I find the differential height of mercury between the two sections? If the manometer on the 5.08cm pipe section was replaced with a pitot tube how would the reading change? any help would be deeply appreciated
Air flows through a pipe at a flow rate of 100L/s. At the entrance, the diameter of the pipe is 10cm and drops to 8cm with a slowly shrinking part. The pressure difference between the two sections of the pipe is measured by a pressure gauge with water in it. Write down the difference in the H level that occurs on the manometer, neglecting the friction losses.
