Water flows through g system shown in figure. Determine the following: 1. The length (X) i 2. The anchoring force in the n meters (heglect all minor losses in piping system of the second otding the anchoring bolts pipe (control volume is the second pipe). ater density-999 kg/m3, water viscosity-1.12 10-3 kg(ms) Point 2 Outtet voint P-44 kPa gage Point (1) Inlet point P-170 kPa gage 0-2.33 m3s Pipe diameter- 1.6m Pipe roughness-0 mm -2.33 m Pipe diameter- 1.2 m Pipe roughness- 1.5 mm Point (3) Anchoring bolts A x (m) 5400 m

Explanation / Answer

kinematic viscosity = dynamic vicosity/density

= 1.12x10-3/999

= 1.2x10-6 m2/s

length of pipe = (flow rate)/(kinematic viscosity)

X = 2.33/(1.2x10-6)

X = 194167 m

Throttling force, F = (pressure differnce at the anchor)*(area of bigger pipe)

= (170-44)*3.14*1.62/4

= 253.21 N
