Question

A 100mm diameter pipe carries water at a velocity of 2.4m/s from point A to point B. The pipe is on an ascending gradient so that point B is 2m above point A. i. Sketch the system and add all relevant data to the sketch. ii. Assuming that there is no frictional head losses in the pipe (i.e. ideal fluid flow) determine the pressure loss from point A to point B. (19,620N/m²)

Step 1

Draw a horizontal line to represent the ground level. Draw a vertical line to represent the pipe, with point \( A \) at the bottom and point \( B \) at the top. Label the diameter of the pipe as 100 mm and the velocity of water as \( 2.4 \, \mathrm{m/s} \). Show more…
