Problem 134P

Consider flow from a reservoir through a horizontal pipe of length L and diameter D that penetrates into the side wall at a vertical distance H from the free surface. The flow rate through an actual pipe with a reentrant section (KL= 0.8) is considerably less than the flow rate through the hole calculated assuming “frictionless” flow and thus zero loss. Obtain a relation for the “equivalent diameter” of the reentrant pipe for use in relations for frictionless flow through a hole and determine its value for a pipe friction fac­tor. length, and diameter of 0.018, 10 m, and 0.04 m, respec­tively. Assume the friction factor of the pipe to remain con­stant and the effect of the kinetic energy correction factor to be negligible.
