The Reducing Elbow Curve Shown In Figure 3 Is Contained In A Vertical Plane And Deflects A Water Current By An Angle Of 1 (48.31 KiB) Viewed 37 times

The reducing elbow curve shown in Figure 3 is contained in a vertical plane and deflects a water current by an angle of 135'. The inlet and outlet diameters are D, and D2. The water flow rate Q (steady state) and the pressures P, and P2, barycentric in sections 1 and 2, are known; the water volume W between sections 1 and 2 and the weight of the curve P are also known Determine the forces in the horizontal and vertical directions needed to keep the curve in equilibrium. Numerical data: Di = 400 mm, D2 = 200 mm, Q = 400 l/s, P, = 150 kPa, P2 = 90 kPa, W=0.2 m, P = 120 N. section 1 D 1359 section 2 ...... D. Fioure 3.
