Bernoulli’s energy theorem
-the theorem states, in effect, that the total mechanical energy of the flowing fluid,
comprising the energy associated with fluid pressure, the gravitational potential
energy of elevation, and the kinetic energy of fluid motion, remains constant.

without losses
𝑄 − 𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑢𝑎𝑙 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑟𝑔𝑒

gradually changes from 150 mm (section 1) to 300 mm (section2). At
section 1, the velocity is 7 m/s and the density of gas is 1kg/m^3 while
at section 2, the velocity flow is 2m/s.

Situation: Water enters through a 600 mm diameter pipe under a
pressure of 14 kPa. It leaves through a 900 mm dia. Exhaust pipe with a
pressure of 4 kPa. A vertical distance of 2.5 m separates the centers of
two pipes at the sections where the pressures are measured. Compute
the ff.
3. Head produced by the motor at 600 mm dia.
4. If 500 lit of water pass the motor each second,
compute the power supplied by the motor.
5. A pipe carrying oil of specific gravity 0.877 changes in size from 150
mm dia. In section 1 and 450 mm in section 2. Section 1 is 3.6 m below
section 2 and the pressure are 90 and 60 kPa respectively. If the
discharge is 150 lit/sec, determine the head lost and the direction of
flow.

7.Evaluate the actual discharge through a 100 mm orifice in lit/sec if the
coefficient of velocity is 0.95 and the coefficient of contraction is 0.65 for the
orifice.
8.The discharge through a 75 mm diameter orifice at the
bottom of a large tank was measured to be 1734 liters in 1 min.
If the head over the orifice remains constant at 5.5 m,
compute the coefficient of discharge.
