Determine the energy loss when oil with a specific gravity


For the conditions in Problem 10.17, if the pressure before the contraction was 80 psig, calculate the pressure in the smaller pipe.

Problem 10.17

Determine the energy loss when oil with a specific gravity of 0.87 flows from a 4-in pipe to a 2-in pipe through a sudden contraction if the velocity of flow in the larger pipe is 4.0 ft/s.
