water flows in a horizontal constant-area pipe; the pipe diameter is 75 mm and the average flow speed is 5 m/s. At the pipe inlet, the gage pressure is 275 kpa, and the outlet is at atmoshperic pressure. determine the head loss in the pipe

Answer:

Head loss = 28.03 m

Explanation:

According to Bernoulli's theorem for fluids  we have

[tex]\frac{P}{\gamma _{w}}+\frac{V^{2}}{2g}+z=Constant[/tex]

Applying this between the 2 given points we have

[tex]\frac{P_{1}}{\gamma _{w}}+\frac{V_{1}^{2}}{2g}+z_{1}=\frac{P_{2}}{\gamma _{w}}+\frac{V_{2}^{2}}{2g}+z_{2}+h_{l}[/tex]

Here [tex]h_{l}[/tex] is the head loss that occurs

[tex]\therefore h_{l}=\frac{P_{1}}{\gamma _{w}}+\frac{V_{1}^{2}}{2g}+z_{1}-\frac{P_{2}}{\gamma _{w}}-\frac{V_{2}^{2}}{2g}-z_{2}[/tex]

Since the pipe is horizantal we have [tex]z_{1}-z_{2}=0[/tex]

Applying contunity equation between the 2 sections we get

[tex]A_{1}V_{1}=A_{2}V_{2}\\\\\therefore V_{1}=V_{2}(\because A_{1}=A_{2})[/tex]

Since the cross sectional area of the both the sections is same thus the speed

is also same

Using this information in the above equation of head loss we obtain

[tex]h_{l}=\frac{1}{\gamma _{w}}(P_{1}-P_{2})[/tex]

Applying values we get

[tex]h_{l}=\frac{1}{9810}\times (275\times 10^{3})m\\\\\therefore h_{l}=28.03m[/tex]
