Figure 4.1 depicts a large reservoir of water. Water is released slowly from the reservoir, such that the flow can be considered steady. Predict the velocity of fluid issuing from the 3 inch drain pipe. The water level in the reservoir above the drain pipe is hR = 10ft. The pipe runs downwards for hE = 12ft before taking a 45° turn through a threaded elbow. The final distance to the outlet is lo = 3ft. For this problem, it has been shown that the friction factor is f = 0.048 hE lo

Suppose a u-bend is redirecting a flow of water. The water enters flowing to the right at 10 m/s. The u-bend completely reverses the direction of the flow, so the water leaves flowing to the left. The area of the u-bend is constant, a circular cross-section of 0.12 m. The pressure in the fluid is measured at 50 kPa. The length of the u-bend is 0.46 m. Find the force, including magnitude and direction, to hold the u-bend in place.

Water flows at the rate of 5 ft³/s through an inclined pipe. At point A, where the diameter is 12 inches, the pressure is 15 psi. At point B, the diameter is 6 inches and the center of the pipe is 2 feet lower than at point A.

Water at 60°F is pumped from a reservoir to the top of a mountain through a 6-in. Schedule 120 pipe at an average velocity of 12 ft/s. The pipe discharges into the atmosphere at a level 3,000 ft above the level in the reservoir. The pipeline itself is 4,500 ft long.
