Question
Download Solution PDFWater is flowing steadily at a velocity of 20 m/s through a pipe of diameter 0.2 m. The pressure and elevation at point X are 400 kN/m2 and 32 m, respectively, while those at another point Y are 300 kN/m2 and 34 m, respectively. What will be the head loss between the points X and Y?
Take g = 10 m/s2.

Bernoulli’s equation is given by:
where
Calculation:
Given:
Case-1: d = 0.2 m, V = 20 m/s, P = 400 kN/m2, Z = 32 m
∴ HX =
Case-2: d = 0.2 m, V = 20 m/s, P = 300 kN/m2, Z = 34 m
HY =
∴ Head loss between the points X and Y = 92 - 84 = 8 m
