• The static pressure of air (1.20 kg/m3) flowing in a pipe is

measured by a precision gauge to be (68.95 kPa). A pitot tube-
manometer indicates (0.523 m) of mercury. The density of
mercury is (13 600 kg/m3). Losses are insignificant. What is the
velocity of the air in the pipe?

Open channel flow
An open channel is a fluid passageway that

allows part of the fluid to be exposed to the
atmosphere. This type of channel includes
natural waterways, canals, and pipes flowing

Minor Losses in Pipe Fittings, Contractions, and Expansions

Head losses also occur as the fluid flows through pipe fittings (i.e.,
elbows, valves, couplings, etc.) and sudden pipe contractions
and expansions.
38
Minor Losses in Pipe Fittings, Contractions, and

Expansions
• Specific fittings have characteristic values of C, which will be provided in the problem statement
• generally accepted nominal value for head loss in well-streamlined gradual

contractions
• The head loss at either an entrance or exit of a pipe from or to a

reservoir

• A pipe transmits water from a tank A to point C that is lower than water level in the
tank by 4 m. The pipe is 100 mm diameter and 15 m long. The highest point on the
pipe B is 1.5 m above water level in the tank and 5 m long from the tank the fluid
velocity is 1.26 m/s . The friction factor is 0.08, with sharp inlet to the pipe.
Calculate the pressure in the pipe at the point B?

CAVITATION
What is the cavitation :
spontaneous vaporization of fluid inside the pump
Why cavitation happen ?
Where ever the fluid pressure is less than vapor
pressure small pocket of vapor will form as vapor
pocket reach the service of Impeller local high fluid
pressure collapses them
Cavitation disadvantage
Vibration , noise, and impeller pitting and structure
damage to pump

THE IMPULSE-MOMENTUM PRINCIPLE
75
PIPE BENDS, ENLARGEMENTS, AND CONTRACTIONS

The impulse-momentum principle illustrates that fluid
momentum is not always conserved when the fluid is acted upon
by an external force. Examples of external forces are gravity (
considered zero for horizontal pipes), gage pressure, friction, and
turning forces from walls and vanes. Only if these external forces
are absent is fluid momentum conserved.

Water is accelerated by a nozzle to an average speed of 20 m/s, and strikes a stationary

vertical plate at a rate of 10 kg/s with a normal velocity of 20 m/s After the strike, the
water stream splatters off in all directions in the plane of the plate. Determine the
force needed to prevent the plate from moving horizontally due to the water stream.
