Question
The nozzle which furnished the water to a certain hydraulic turbine 275mm in diameter and has
coefficients of velocity and discharge of 0.975 and 0.96, respectively. The nozzle is supplied from a
60cm pipe in which the water approached the nozzle with a total head of 330m. Compute the
following:
a. Energy per second delivered by the jet to the turbine.
b. Energy measured in hp lost in passing through the nozzle.

A constant flow rate of 0.12 m /sec is maintained through the nozzle. Find the acceleration at the midpoint of the nozzle. Hint: velocity at any point is equal to the flow rate divided by the area of the pipe at that point. [Ans. a=0.02579 m/s/s] 3. Water accelerates in an upward sloping pipe at a rate of 1.5 m/s?. The pipe slope is set at 40 degrees and has a length of 6 m. If the pressure is 63 kPa at section 1, what will be the pressure at section 2? [Ans. P2=16165.52 Pa] 1arrow_forwardA pump is attached to a fire hydrant, where it is desired to produce a jet that rises to a maximum height of 40 m and delivers water at a rate of 100 L/s. At the attachment location, the diameter is 100 mm and the pressure is estimated as 150 kPa. The discharge nozzle has a diameter of 80 mm and is inclined at an angle of 50 degrees to the horizontal. If friction losses are neglected, estimate the head that must be added by the pump to achieve the desired objective. The path of the water jet is parabolic.arrow_forward
