The Bernoulli’s Equation

Bernoulli’s equation
 BE is used in analysis of pipe flow
 It states that total energy remains constant along
a stream line (That is total head is constant)
 It uses certain assumptions
– Flow is steady
– Fluid is incompressible
– Valid at two points along a single streamline
 The hydraulic grade and the energy line are
graphical presentations of the Bernoulli’s
equation (BE)

the water and the pipe wall, and /or
a turbulence developed by
obstructions of the flow
