Question

the flow energy of 124 L/min of a fluid passing a boundary to a system is 108.5 kJ/min. Determine the pressure at this point

Answer 1

Answer:

The pressure at this point is 0.875 mPa

Explanation:

Given that,

Flow energy = 124 L/min

Boundary to system P= 108.5 kJ/min

$P=1.81\ kW$

We need to calculate the pressure at this point

Using formula of pressure

$P=F\times v$

$P=A_{1}P_{1}\times v_{1}$

Here, $A_{1}v_{1}=Q_{1}$

Where, v = velocity

Put the value into the formula

$1.81 =P_{1}\times0.124\times\dfrac{1}{60}$

$P_{1}=\dfrac{1.81\times60}{0.124}$

$P_{1}=875.80\ kPa$

$P_{1}=0.875\ mPa$

Hence, The pressure at this point is 0.875 mPa
