A smooth pipe of diameter 200mm carries water. The pressure in the pipe at section S1 (elevation: 12m) the pressure is 20kPa and velocity is 2ms−1. Density of water is 1000kgm−3 and acceleration due to gravity is 9.8ms−2. Which of the following is TRUE?
Assuming flow from S1 to S2 -
h1=p1−p2pg+v12−v222g+z1=z2
But for continuity equation for incompressible fluids
A1v1=A2v2&A1=A2
v=v2
h1=p1−p2pg+z1−z2
h1=1.06m(+ve)
