Water is flowing through a pipe of 5 cm diameter under a pressure of 29.43 N/cm2 (gage) and
with mean velocity of 2 m/s. Find the total head or total energy per unit weight of the water at a
cross-section, which is 5 m above the datum line.
Solution:
Diameterofpipe=5cm=0.05m
Pressure=p=29.43N/cm2 = 29.43 x 104 N/m2
Velocity=V=2m/s
Datumhead=Z=5m
Totalhead=pressurehead+velocityhead+datumhead
Pressurehead=p/ =29.43 x 104/(1000 x 9.81) = 30 m
Velocity head = V2/2g = (2)2/(2 x 9.81) = 0.204 m
Total head = p/ +V2/2g + Z = 30 + 0.204 + 5
Total head = 35.204 m
The diameter of a pipe changes from 200 mm at a section 5 m above datum to 50 mm at a section 3 m
above datum. The pressure of water at first section is 500 kPa. If the velocity of flow at the first section is
1 m/s, determine the intensity of pressure at the second section.
Solution:
d1 = 200 mm = 0.2 m; Z1 = 5 m; d2 = 50 mm = 0.05 m; Z2 = 3 m; p1 = 500 kPa and V1 = 1 m/s
