A 30° elbow is used to deflect water flow at a rate of 14 kg/s in a horizontal pipe upward The elbow discharges water into the atmosphere Cross-sectional areas of the elbow are 113 cm^2 at the inlet and 7 cm^2 at the outlet. The elevation difference between the centers of the outlet and the inlet is 30 cm Neglect the weight of the elbow and the water inside the elbow, Using appropriate integral equations, find a) Wet and outset velocity b) Gage pressure at the center of the inlet section of the elbow c) Anchoring force required to hold the elbow In place Take the density of water to be 1000kg/m^3 & the flow is incompressible.

Question

 A 30° elbow is used to deflect water flow at a rate of 14 kg/s in a horizontal pipe upward The elbow discharges water into the atmosphere Cross-sectional areas of the elbow are 113 cm^2 at the inlet and 7 cm^2 at the outlet. The elevation difference between the centers of the outlet and the inlet is 30 cm Neglect the weight of the elbow and the water inside the elbow,
Using appropriate integral equations, find
a) Wet and outset velocity
b) Gage pressure at the center of the inlet section of the elbow
c) Anchoring force required to hold the elbow In place
Take the density of water to be 1000kg/m^3 & the flow is incompressible.
