C2. A conical tube is fixed vertically with its
smaller end upwards and it forms a part of the
pipeline. The velocity at the smaller end is 4.3 m/s
and at the larger end is 2.1 m/s. The length of the
conical tube is 1.6 m and the flow rate of the water
is 120 liters/s. The pressure at the smaller end is
equivalent to a head of 11.2 m of water.
Considering the following two cases:
(1) Neglecting friction, (without head loss)
determine (i) the diameter at the smaller end in
meter, (ii) the diameter at the larger end in meter,
and (iii) the pressure at the larger end of the tube
in m of water.
(2) If a head loss (with head loss)in the tube,h̟=
0.0153(V1-V2)² , where V1 is the velocity at the
smaller end and V2 is the velocity at the larger end,
determine (iv) the head loss in m of water and (v)
the pressure at the larger end of the tube in m of
water.
