Laminar Flow in Pipes (§10.5)

The velocity of oil (S = 0.8) through the 5-cm smooth pipe is 1.2 m/s. Here L = 12 m, z1 = 1 m, z2
= 2 m, and the manometer deflection is 10 cm. Determine the flow direction, the resistance

Step 3 of 6

Since pressure at point 2 is greater than pressure at point 1 and datum head also at point 2 is
greater than at point 1 therefore direction of flow is from right to left

By applying Bernoulli’s equation at points 1 and 2
