1.0 Introduction
In fluid dynamics, Bernoulli’s principle states that increase in the speed of fluid
occurs simultaneously with a decrease in pressure or a decrease in the fluid’s
potential energy.
Bernoulli’s principle, which is normally known as Bernoulli’s equation, defines
the conservation of energy in terms of non-viscous, incompressible and
frictionless fluid in steady flow. By considering two points, 1 and 2, on a
streamline :
p₁ V ₁2 p₂ V ₂2

p₁
The term
ρg
, represent the pressure head, V2₁2
g
represent velocity head
and z is vertical elevation. The sum of these three terms is known as the total
head or total energy. When the locations of the points 1 and 2 in the pipe are in
the same datum where the position where z1=z2.

2.0 Objectives
To determine total head for each point in the horizontal pipe using Bernoulli’s
principle when applied to the steady flow of water.
