Required information
A
90\deg
elbow in a horizontal pipe is used to direct water flow upward at a rate
m
of
35k(g)/(s)
. The diameter of the entire elbow is 10 cm . The elbow discharges waterr into the atmosphere, and thus the pressure at the exit is the local atmospheric pressure. The elevation difference between the centers of the exit and the inlet of the elbow is 50 cm . The weight of the elbow and the water in it is considered to be negligible. Take the density of water to be
1000k(g)/(m^(3))
and the momentum-flux correction factor to be 1.03 at both the inlet and the outlet.
NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part.
Determine the anchoring force needed to hold the elbow in place.
The anchoring force needed to hold the elbow in place is
◻
N The resultant direction of the force is
◻
