Problem 3 4 Points The Reducing Elbow Curve Shown In Figure 3 Is Contained In A Vertical Plane And Deflects A Water C 1 (103.41 KiB) Viewed 19 times

Problem 3 (4 points): 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 HVL 1912 D Figure 3. Reducing elbow curve contained in a vertical plane
