Question 42
XE-BNAT2 marksNeeds review
Water flows through a pipe of diameter 20 cm at a flow rate of 0.025 m
/s. A pitot-static tube is placed at the centre of the pipe and indicates the pressure difference of 5 cm of water column. Theoretical velocity measured through pitot-static tube when multiplied with velocity coefficient
gives the actual velocity of the flow. If the mean velocity in the pipe is 90% of the actual velocity at the centre of the pipe and the gravitational acceleration is 10 m/s
, the value of
