    1) The document describes a fluid mechanics problem involving water flowing through a circular tube with a diameter of 50mm and smoothly contoured plug of 40mm diameter at the end. 2) It asks to find the pressure measured by a pressure gage and the force required to hold the plug. 3) The solution shows applying equations of steady, incompressible flow along a streamline to calculate that the pressure is 164 kPa and the force required is 322 N.

    Find:a)Pressuremeasuredbythegageshown.
    b)Forcerequiredholdingplug.

    Solution:

    Assumptions:1)Steadyflow
    2)Incompressibleflow
    3)Nofriction
    4)Flowalongastreamline
    5)z=0
    6)Weusethepressuregage

    a) Basicequation:

    Byapplyingtheassumptions,thisequationbecomes:
