For the wye fitting below, which lies in a horizontal plane, the cross-sectional areas at sections 1, 2 and 3 are 1 ft2 , 1 ft2 and 0.25 ft2 , respectively. At these same respective sections the gage pressures are 1000 lb/ft2 , 900 lb/ft2 and 0, and the flow rates are as shown below in ft3/s or cfs. What x and y force components would have to be applied to hold the wye in place?
Don't copy from other websites solution. Nitrogen at 37 psig and 90°F flows horizontally from a 2.0-in.-diameter pipe at 2.5 ft3/s into a 5.0-in.-diameter pipe. Assume incompressible and inviscid flow and calculate the increase in pressure (psi) from the smaller pipe to the larger pipe.
Water at 38°C flows from A to B through 244 m of average 300-mm-I.D. cast iron pipe (∊ = 0.00061 m). Point B is 9.1 m above A, and the pressure at B must be maintained at 138 kPa. If 0.222 m3/s is to flow through the pipe, what must be the pressure at A?
Based on the layout of the water supply system, how much pressure in psi will be available at the faucet of the 2nd floor of the residential building as show in Figure 1 below? The pressure at the source is 75 psi. Do you think that the pressure is enough for the building? Consider flow through the delivery pipe, Q = 3.75 cfs and diameter of the pipe, D = 4.25 inch. Ignore the minor pressure losses and use the following formulae to calculate the major pressure losses. If the pressure on the 2nd floor is not with the standard limit of 50 – 60 psi, a pump needs to be added in the place 65 ft from the source, as shown. Estimate the pump power in horsepower to provide a pressure of 58 psi in the house
4. Brine (SG = 1.1, viscosity = 1.1cP) is pumped at a rate of 45 ft^3/min (ID = 2.5in) from large open reservoir to the bottom of another open tank. The liquid level in the reservoir is maintained at 5.2ft, and the liquid level in the reservoir and the bottom of the discharge tank are 18ft apart, vertically. Friction losses in the pipe amount to 10% of the elevation head. If 2.15 hp of power is required for the process, what is the expected liquid level in the receiving tank?
Please solve both parts correctly. A pipe that carries water, has section of radius r₁ = 12 cm; it is narrowed, so the section has radius r2 = 6 cm. Calculate a) If the difference between pressures is 7.5 kPa, what is the velocity in section "2" ? b) the flow rate of the duct.
At point A where the diameter at of the pipe is 18 cm the pressure reading is 22.5 cm of Mercury. At point B, 3 m lower than A, the diameter is 48 cm and the pressure reading is 50 cm of Mercury. If the total head loss between the two points is 1.50 m, solve for the discharge. Water is flowing through the pipe. subject: hydraulics

PROBLEM 3: A venturi meter with a throat diameter of 100 mm is fitted in a vertical pipeline of 200 mm diameter with oil of specific gravity 0.88 flowing upwards.
