(a) A horizontal pipe, of constant internal diameter 500 mm, has a 90° bend (Figure Q3a). The discharge of water through the pipe is 0.15 ms and the entry pressure head is 28 m. Determine the magnitude and direction of the force exerted by the fluid on the bend. [9 marks] Figure Q3a
2.2 A 250 mm diameter pipe is 1500 m long. When the discharge is 0.095 m3/s in this pipe, the pressure drop between the ends of the pipe is measured as 98.06 kPa. The elevation at the end of the pipe is 10 m below its beginning. What type of flow is this? What is the equivalent sand-grain roughness of the pipe wall? What is the Hazen-Williams roughness coefficient? How much energy is dissipated by fluid friction during each hour...
35. (a) A reservoir A discharges water to a lower reservoir B through a 3600 m long pipe of diameter 600 mm. The flow is due to gravity and the difference in surface water levels in A and B is 13 m. Reservoir A is now required to supply water also to a third reservoir C, the water surface of which is 15 m below that of A. The discharge to C is to be made from a 1200 m...
Water is flowing through a 600mm diameter horizontal pipe n = 0.013 and 1000m in length.

The difference of pressure between the main and throat is measured by a liquid of s.g. 0.6 in an inverted U-tube which gives a reading of 30 cm. The loss of head between the main and throat is 0.2 times the kinetic...
