Question 42
XE-BNAT2 marksNeeds review
Consider the incompressible, steady and irrotational flow through a concentric reducer in a horizontal pipeline. The pipe diameter reduces from
cm to
cm as shown in figure. The pressure at position 1 and position 2 of the reducer is
kPa and
kPa, respectively. The specific weight of fluid is 7 kN/m³. Acceleration due to gravity is 10 m/s².
Neglecting frictional effects, the mass flow rate (in kg/s, rounded off to two decimal places) of the fluid through the reducer is _____.
