The graphic below shows a reducing section that is part of a vertical pipeline. The pipeline contains an oil (S=0.8) that is flowing at a rate of 0.6 m³/s. The pressure at the entrance to the reducing section (i.e. the larger diameter section indicated as point 1) is p₁= 200 kPa. The dimensions of the section are: L=450 mm, D₁= 450 mm and D₂ = 300 mm. Assume the temperature as 5°C. Z P₁ X D₂ D₁ Q Determine the force on the reducing section. In your calculations you should neglect losses but include gravity. Draw appropriate diagrams to support your working out. 2 L 1
