Reducer connection connecting a pipe that carries water with a diameter of A (mm) and another with a diameter of B (mm). If the pressure difference between the two ends of the joint is equal to C (mm) of mercury, calculate the average velocity at the inlet and outlet sections, and find the volumetric flow rate if the loss is small that can be neglected.
A water pipe 8 in. in diameter gradually tapers down to 4 in. in diameter. The rate of flow is 1000 gal per min. If the pressure is 20 psi where the diameter is 8 in., what is the pressure where the diameter is 4 in.? (Water weighs 62.4 lb per f3).
Calculate the pressure of the air in the sealed tank shown in the figure that would cause the volume flow rate of 500 gal/min from the nozzle. The depth h is 10 ft.
