Loss of head due to sudden enlargement Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Loss of Head = ((Velocity of Liquid Inlet-Velocity of Liquid Outlet)^2)/(2*9.81)
hL = ((Vi-Vo)^2)/(2*9.81)
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Loss of Head - (Measured in Meter) - The Loss of head due to sudden enlargement turbulent eddies are formed at the corner of the enlargement of the pipe section.
Velocity of Liquid Inlet - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Velocity of liquid inlet is considered on flow through an external cylindrical mouthpiece.
Velocity of Liquid Outlet - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Velocity of liquid outlet is considered on flow through an external cylindrical mouthpiece.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Velocity of Liquid Inlet: 8.2 Meter per Second --> 8.2 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Velocity of Liquid Outlet: 5.5 Meter per Second --> 5.5 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
hL = ((Vi-Vo)^2)/(2*9.81) --> ((8.2-5.5)^2)/(2*9.81)
Evaluating ... ...
hL = 0.371559633027523
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.371559633027523 Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
0.371559633027523 0.37156 Meter <-- Loss of Head
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

6 Flow Head Calculators

Absolute pressure head at constant head and atmospheric pressure head
Go Absolute Pressure Head = Atmospheric Pressure Head+Constant Head-(((Velocity of Liquid Outlet/0.62)^2)*(1/(2*9.81)))
Atmospheric pressure head at constant head and absolute pressure head
Go Atmospheric Pressure Head = Absolute Pressure Head-Constant Head+(((Velocity of Liquid Outlet/0.62)^2)*(1/(2*9.81)))
Loss of head due to sudden enlargement
Go Loss of Head = ((Velocity of Liquid Inlet-Velocity of Liquid Outlet)^2)/(2*9.81)
Head of liquid for head loss and coefficient of velocity
Go Head of the Liquid = Head Loss/(1-(Coefficient of Velocity^2))
Loss of head due to fluid resistance
Go Head Loss = Head of the Liquid*(1-(Coefficient of Velocity^2))
Head of Liquid above Centre of Orifice
Go Head of the Liquid = (Theoretical Velocity^2)/(2*9.81)

Loss of head due to sudden enlargement Formula

Loss of Head = ((Velocity of Liquid Inlet-Velocity of Liquid Outlet)^2)/(2*9.81)
hL = ((Vi-Vo)^2)/(2*9.81)

What is mouthpiece?

A mouthpiece is a short tube of length not more than two to three times its diameter, which is. fitted to a tank for measuring the discharge of the flow from the tank. By fitting the mouthpiece, the. discharge through an orifice of the tank can be increased.

What is an external cylindrical mouthpiece

The mouthpiece is an attachment in the form of a small tube fixed to an orifice. When the tube is fixed externally, it is known as an external mouthpiece. Depending on the shape, a mouthpiece can be cylindrical, convergent, divergent, convergent-divergent, or of any other form.
