Two circular water jets (d = 0.5 in.) issue steadily from this unusual nozzle. If Vj = 80.2 ft/s, what force is required at the flange to hold the nozzle in place in the x-direction. The pressure in the 4 in. pipe (D = 3.5 in) is 50 psig.
From a very large tank with an absolute pressure of 3 bar, the water is discharged to the atmosphere by means of 2 smooth pipes of 100 m length, 1 m and 50 m long, connected in series. The height difference between the water level in the tank and the outlet is 50m, and the diameters of the pipes are 50mm and 100mm, respectively. In addition, a 500kPa turbine is placed on the 2nd Pipe. a) Draw the system roughly, show the dimensions on it.b) Calculate the exit velocity of the water from the 2nd pipe, ignoring the local losses.
6.36 This two-dimensional water (at 50°F) jet is deflected by the two-dimensional vane, which is moving to the right with a speed of 60 ft/s. The initial jet is 0.30 ft thick (vertical dimension), and its speed is 100 ft/s. What power per foot of the jet (normal to the page) is transmitted to the vane? See §6.5 for useful knowledge about moving CVs.
The jet of water of a pelton wheel is 80mm diameter. The jet strike's the bucket on the tangential line 0.45m from the centre of the wheel and the jet is deflected through 160° while it is moving across the bucket. Ignore friction and determine the power and hydraulic efficiency if the speed is 275 r/min and the pressure behind the nozzle is 680kPa
Water flows through a rectangular duct of height h = 575.5 mm and width b = 100 mm.(coming off screen) and enters a 90° elbow. At the entrance of the elbow, flow can be considereduniform with speed U = 58 m/s. At the output, a linear velocity profile must be consideredas shown in the figure, where Vmax = 2Vmin. Calculate the value of Vmin in m/s.
A large lawn sprinkler with two identical arms is used to generate electric power by attaching a generator to its rotating head. Water enters the sprinkler from the base along the axis of rotation at a rate of 5 gal/s and leaves the nozzles in the tangential direction. The sprinkler rotates at a rate of 180 rpm in a horizontal plane. The diameter of each jet is 0.5 in, and the normal distance between the axis of rotation and the center of each nozzle is 2 ft. Determine the maximum possible electrical power produced.

A horizontal 300-mm pipe contracts to a 150-mm diameter. If the flow is 0.127 m3/s of oil (s.g.=0.88) and the pressure in the smaller pipe is 265 kPa what force is exerted on the contraction, neglecting friction?
Water is passing through a vertical nozzle.The flow rate is 40kg/s and the cross section area at the inlet and outlet is given as 149 and 36cm^2 respectively. The outlet area of the nozzle is open to the atmosphere. Please compute the horizontal component of the anchoring force.
A horizontal nozzle discharges water into the atmosphere as shown in the figure, being the relative pressure at point 1 equal to p1 = 20 kPa A Pitot tube connected to a mercury manometer is inserted into the flow in area section A1 indicating a height difference h = 0.02 m. For this reading indicated in the Pitot tube, determine the speed in the Area A1 section of the nozzle.

A fire pump delivers water through a 150 mm main to a hydrant to which is connected a 75 mm hose, terminating in a 25 mm nozzle. The nozzle is 3 m above the hydrant and 18 m above the pump. Assuming a total frictional loss of 18.5 m from the pump to the base of the nozzle, and a loss in the nozzle of 10 per cent of the velocity head in the jet, and neglecting air resistance, what gage pressure at the pump is necessary to throw a stream 30 m vertically above the nozzle?
