Question

Determine the average water exit velocity

Answer:

53.05 m/s

Explanation:

Given information

Volume flow rate, Q=16 m^{3}/min

Diameter d= 8cm= 0.08 m

Assumptions

  • The flow is jet flow hence momentum-flux correction factor is unity
  • Gravitational force is not considered
  • The flow is steady, frictionless and incompressible
  • Water is discharged to the atmosphere hence pressure is ignored

We know that Q=AV and making v the subject then

V=\frac {Q}{A} where V is the exit velocity and A is area

Area, A=\frac {\pi d^{2}{4} where d is the diameter

By substitution

V=\frac {16\times 4}{\pi 0.08^{2}}=3183.098862 m/min

To convert v to m/s from m/s, we simply divide it by 60 hence

V=\frac {3183.098862  m/min}{60 s}=53.0516477 m/s\approx 53.05 m/s
