Determine the pressure difference in N/m2,between two points 800m apart in horizontal pipe-line,150 mm diameter, discharging wat

zlopas [31]

Answer: $10.631\times 10^3\ N/m^2$

Explanation:

Given

Discharge is $Q=12.5\ L$

Diameter of pipe $d=150\ mm$

Distance between two ends of pipe $L=800\ m$

friction factor $f=0.008$

Average velocity is given by

$\Rightarrow v_{avg}=\dfrac{12.5\times 10^{-3}}{\frac{\pi }{4}(0.15)^2}\\\\\Rightarrow v_{avg}=\dfrac{15.9134\times 10^{-3}}{2.25\times 10^{-2}}\\\\\Rightarrow v_{avg}=7.07\times 10^{-1}\\\Rightarrow v_{avg}=0.707\ m/s$

Pressure difference is given by

$\Rightarrow \Delta P=f\ \dfrac{L}{d}\dfrac{\rho v_{avg}^2}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta P=0.008\times \dfrac{800}{0.15}\times \dfrac{997\times (0.707)^2}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow \Delta P=10,631.45\ N/m^2\\\Rightarrow \Delta P=10.631\ kPa$
