A 6-cm-diameter horizontal water pipe expands gradually to a 9-cm-diameter pipe. The walls of the expansion section are angled 10° from the axis. The average velocity and pressure of water before the expansion section are 7 m/s and 150 kPa, respectively. Determine the head loss in the expansion section and the pressure in the larger-diameter pipe.
Consider an air solar collector that is 1 m wide and 5 m long and has a constant spacing of 3 cm between the glass cover and the collector plate as shown in Figure below, Air flows at an average temperature of 45°C at a rate of 0.15 m/s through the 1-m-wide edge of the collector along the 5-m-long passageway. Disregarding the entrance and roughness effects and the 90° bend, determine the pressure drop in the collector.
A pipe discharges 142 lps of water into a reservoir at a point 1.85 mbelow the water surface. At point A the diameter is 25.4 cm and the center of thepipe is 1.25 m above the water surface.

A hydroelectric power plant uses Pelton-type turbines, in which multiple nozzles are used to accelerate the waterwhich is directed onto the turbine blades, which are exposed to an atmospheric pressure of 101.325 kPa. The water enters the nozzles with an absolute pressure of 500 kPa and a speed of 5 m/s, and the nozzle outlets are exposed to atmospheric pressure and have an internal diameter of 5 cm. Consider that the specific mass of water is 1,000 kg/m3. Determine the mass flow rate of water through each of the nozzles, and explain why the actual mass flow rate will be lower.
A pipe line of length 2000 m is used for power transmission. If 110 kW power is to be transmitted through the pipe in which water having a pressure of 490.5 N/cm2at inlet is flowing. If the pressure drop over the length of pipe is 98.1 N/cm2and ff = 0.0065.Determine:The diameter of the pipe and the volume flow rate; and If a nozzle is introduced at the end of the pipe, what would be its diameter and the power transmitted.
A 90" elbow is used to direct water flow at a rate of 0,025 m3/s in a horizontal pipe upward. The diameter of the entire elbow is 10 cm. The elbow discharges water into the atmosphere, and thus the pressure at the exit is the local atmospheric pressure. The elevation difference betwoen the centers of the exit and the inlet of the elbow is 35 cm. The weight of the elbow and the water in it is considered to be negligible. Determine the anchoring force needed to hold the elbow in place A) 27 N 3433.5 N C) 79.5 N D) 132. 9 E) 106. 5 N
