Define steady flow in fluid mechanics.
Think about how you would describe water flowing from a faucet consistently.
What does Bernoulli's equation relate?
Recall the relationship between speed and pressure.
What defines steady flow?
Remember the consistency of flow at specific points.
Bernoulli's equation accounts for which of the following factors?
Think about the three different energy types in fluid.
Consider a scenario in a water treatment plant where raw water enters a filtration system at a rate of 0.2 m³/s with a velocity of 2 m/s and a pressure of 150 kPa. Calculate the outlet velocity if the outlet diameter is 0.15 m.
Remember the area formula for a circle.
A fluid flows through a horizontal pipe that bends at a right angle. If the pressure before the bend is 120 kPa and the pipe has an inlet diameter of 0.1 m and outlet diameter of 0.05 m, find the pressure at the outlet.
You may need to calculate velocities based on diameter changes.
