    1. This document contains 7 fluid mechanics problems and their solutions related to fluid flow in nozzles, pipes, and other systems. The problems involve calculating velocities, pressures, pressure gradients, and forces using principles of fluid mechanics. 2. Problem 1 involves calculating local and convective accelerations in a converging nozzle, problem 2 calculates pressure differences across a tank accelerating in two directions, and problem 3 finds the pressure gradient halfway along a nozzle with linearly varying velocity. 3. The remaining problems calculate velocities in pipe flows, exit velocities after gas mixing, pressures at points in contracting pipe flows, efflux velocities and required piston forces for nozzle flows, and manometer deflections for duct flows.

    Tutorial 4 Solution

    1. The velocity of water flow in the nozzle shown is given by the following expression:
    2 ⁄ 1 0.5 ⁄
    Where V = velocity in meters per second, t = time in seconds, x = distance along the
    nozzle, and L = length of nozzle = 1.2 m. When x = 0.5L and t = 3s, what is the local
    acceleration along the centerline? What is the convective acceleration? Assume quasi-
    one-dimensional flow prevails.

    2. The closed tank shown, which is full of liquid, is accelerated downward at 1.5g and to the
    right at 0.9g. Here L = 0.9 m, H = 1.2, and the specific gravity of the liquid is 1.2.

    3. If the velocity varies linearly with the distance through this water nozzle, what is the
    pressure gradient, dp/dx, halfway through the nozzle? (ρ = 1000 kg/m3).

    7. Water is forced out of this cylinder by the piston. If the piston is driven at a speed of 1.8
    m/s, what will be the speed of efflux of the water from the nozzle if d = 5 cm and D = 10
    cm? Neglecting friction and assuming irrotational flow, determine the force, F that will
    be required to drive the piston. The exit pressure is atmospheric pressure. :

    velocity at the inlet (station 1) is 24 m/s, and the area ratio between stations 1 and 2 is 0.5
    (A2/A1 = 0.5). Two pressure taps, 3 m apart, are connected to a manometer, as shown. The
    specific weight of the manometer liquid is 18.9 kN/m3. Find the deflection, ∆h, of the
    manometer.
