A reducing elbow is used to deflect water flow at 25 L/s in a horizontal pipe upward by an angle of=45° from the flow direction while accelerating it. The elbow discharges water into the atmosphere. The diameter of the elbow is 15 cm at the inlet and 5 cm at the exit. The elevation difference between the center of the exit and inlet is 40 cm. The mass of the elbow and the water in it is 40 kg. Determine the anchoring force needed to hold the elbow in place, assuming a momentum-flux correction factor of 1.03.
A 90° elbow is directs water upwards into the atmosphere from a horizontal pipe with a diameter of 12 cm that is flowing at 20 L/s. The elevation difference between the centers of the exit and the inlet of the elbow is 35 cm. If the weight of the elbow and the water in it are negligible, and assuming a momentum-flux correction factor of 1.03, determine the anchoring force needed to hold the elbow in place.
A shower head has 20 circular openings, each with radius 0.90 mmmm . The shower head is connected to a pipe with radius 0.98 cmcm .

- 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.arrow_forwardA lawn sprinkler with three identical arms is used to water a garden by rotating in a horizontal plane by the impulse caused by water flow. Water enters the sprinkler along the axis of rotation at a rate of 45 L/s and leaves the 1.5-cm-diameter nozzles in the tangential direction. The bearing applies a retarding torque of T0 = 40 N·m due to friction at the anticipated operating speeds. For a normal distance of 40 cm between the axis of rotation and the center of the nozzles, determine the angular velocity of the sprinkler shaft.arrow_forwardWater flowing in a horizontal 25-cm-diameter pipe at 8 m/s and 300 kPa gage enters a 90° bend reducing section, which connects to a 15-cm-diameter vertical pipe. The inlet of the bend is 50 cm above the exit. Neglecting any frictional and gravitational effects, determine the net resultant force exerted on the reducer by the water.

The blower delivers atmospheric air at 20°C and 95 kPa. Disre- garding any losses and assuming the tangential components of air velocity at the inlet and the outlet to be equal to the impeller velocity at respective locations, determine the volu- metric flow rate of air when the rotational speed of the shaft is 800 rpm and the power consumption of the blower is 120 W. Also determine the normal components of velocity at the inlet and outlet of the impeller.arrow_forwardAs seen in the figure, a 6 cm diameter water jet (r=1000 kg/m3) hits a plate with a 4 cm diameter hole on it. Some of the jet passes through the hole and some of it deviates.
