Question #3 (8 marks) The 90 elbow in a pipe system connects the DN 100 schedule 40 pipe with DN80 schedule 40. Calculate the force that must be exerted on the pipe to hold it in equilibrium. The elbow is in a horizontal plane and carrying 3000 L/min of water at 15. The inlet pressure is 600 Kpa. Ignore all losses.
