(a) An incompressible liquid flows through a sudden contraction from a pipe of diameter Dl into a pipe of smaller diameter D2. What does the Bernoulli equation predict for P1=P2, the difference between the modified pressures upstream and downstream of the contraction? Does this result agree with experimental observations? (b) Repeat the derivation for the isothermal horizontal flow of an ideal gas through a sudden […]
