Chapter 6, Problem 6.111PP
6.111 Bernoulli's principle applies to Venturi tubes that are used in many practical devices such as "air brush" painters, vacuum systems, carburetors, water bed drains and many other devices. One such system used to spray fertilizer is
shown in Fig. 6.42 Port A is connected to a water supply that is directed through the venturi.
At the throat of the Venturi, Port B is connected to the supply of fertilizer concentrate from a container below. Port C is the spray nozzle that directs the diluted fertilizer solution out to the plants. Port A, 10 mm in diameter, is connected to a water supply that reads 180 kPa while flowing at 12 L/min. Determine the vacuum pressure in the 3.5-mm-diameter throat if the metering valve is completely closed. Explain what will happen to the fertilizer concentrate in the container below as the metering valve is opened.

C2. A conical tube is fixed vertically with its smaller end upwards and it forms a part of the pipeline. The diameter at the smaller end is 245 mm and at the larger end is 467 mm. The length of the conical tube is 1.8 m and the flow rate of the oil is 128 liters/s. The pressure at the smaller end is equivalent to a head of 9.7 m of oil.
Considering the following two cases:
(1) Neglecting friction, (without head loss) determine (i) the velocity at the smaller end in m/s, (ii) the velocity at the larger end in m/s, and (iii) the pressure at the larger end of the tube.
(2) If a head loss (with head loss) in the tube is hL= 0.0153(V1-V2)2, where V1 is the velocity at the smaller end and V2 is the velocity at the larger end, determine (iv) the head loss in m of oil and (v) the pressure at the larger end of the tube.
