Question: Water falls down a vertical pipe by gravity alone. The flow between vertical locations z 1 and z 2 is fully developed, and velocity profiles

Water falls down a vertical pipe by gravity alone. The flow between vertical locations z1 and z2 is fully developed, and velocity profiles at these two locations are sketched in Fig. P10–112. Since there is no forced pressure gradient, pressure P is constant everywhere in the flow (P = Patm). Calculate the modified pressure at locations z1 and z2. Sketch profiles of modified pressure at locations z1 and z2. Discuss.
