    Hydraulic mining will use water from a lake 300 m above the mine site through a 900 m long fire hose with a 75 mm diameter and 0.01 relative roughness to power a nozzle with a 25 mm diameter outlet. The nozzle's loss coefficient is 0.04 and couplings along the hose every 10 m have a loss coefficient of 20.

    Hydraulic mining is to be done using water from a lake located 300 m above the mine site.

    The density and


    kinematic viscosity of water are 1000 kg/m3 and 1*10-6 m2/s, respectively. A 900 m long fire hose with an inside
    diameter of 75 mm and a relative roughness of 0.01 will be used. Couplings are located every 10 m along the hose.
    The nozzle outlet diameter is 25 mm and its loss coefficient is 0.04 based on the upstream velocity. Estimate the
    outlet velocity from the nozzle.

    hose length = 900 m 300 m


    hose diameter = 75 mm
    hose relative roughness = 0.01
    coupling every 10 m
    nozzle outlet diameter = 25 mm
    coupling loss coefficient = 20
    nozzle loss coefficient = 0.04
