Answer:
The pressure after passing the valve is 23,8 [Kpa] ( 0,234 atm) and the pressure drop is about 1,53 [Kpa]
Explanation:
We need to use the formula of bernoulli, in the attached image we can see the fluid throw the pipe, we also can calculate the velocity inside the pipe using the flow rate and the cross sectional area.
For this case, we don't use the elevation difference and therefore those terms can be cancelled.
When the area has reduced the velocity of the fluid is increased but there is a drop pressure through the valve.
We know that arc length (x(t)) is given with the following formula:
Where r is the radius of the barrel. We must keep in mind that as barrel rolls its radius decreases because less and less tape is left on it.
If we say that the thickness of the tape is D then with every full circle our radius shrinks by d. We can write this down mathematically:
When we plug this back into the first equation we get:
We must solve this quadratic equation.
The final solution is:
It is rather complicated solution. If we asume that the tape has no thickness we get simply:
