The horizontal U-shaped bend is used to divert water. Inflow discharge is 4X kg/s at the inlet, Section (1) (Notice that the the discharge is given in terms of mass; i.e., mass discharge. Q). Total absolute pressure is 2X0 kPa at the inlet section. At the outlet, Section (2), total absolute pressure is 150 kPa, outflow discharge is 30 kg/s. Water is taken out of the bend from two sections. Outflow discharge is 4 kg/s at Section (3) and 6.X kg/s at Section (4). Sections (3) and (4) are open to the atmosphere. Calculate the x- and y-components of force exerted on the bend. . . . . . . Take atmospheric pressure 100 kPa. Use gauge pressure. Mass discharge - Specific mass Discharge Sections (1) and (2) are close enough to each other. Kinetic energy correction factor is 1.035 for the inlet and outlet sections. Momentum correction factor is 1.025 for the inlet and outlet sections. Specific mass of water is p = 1000 kg/m 30 kg/s 0.05 m 4X kg/s-> 0.10 m (3) 4 kg/s 6.X kg/s 0.02 m 0.03 m
