A moment balance about the hinge is shown in the figure at the left. The distance, d, from the
hinge to the location of the resultant force is simply d = h – y R – h = 2h/3 = h/3.
The moment balance about the hinge has only two
forces, FR and W. This balance requires that FRd =
W(3 ft).
Substituting d = h/3 and FR = h(2 ft) into this
moment balance with W = 2000 lbf and for water =
62.4 lbf/ft3 gives

Since both locations are at the same elevation, z 4 – z3 = 0. We also have p4 = 0 because this
point is a free jet (open to the atmosphere.) At the throat, the manometer equation for the water
height of 0.10 m gives p3 + (0.1 m)w = 0 or p3 = –(0.1 m)w. Finally we can use the continuity
equation, V4A4 = V3A3, to give V4(0.06 m)(0.04 m) = V3(0.06 m)(0.02 m) or V3 = 2V4. Making these
substitutions in the Bernoulli equation gives.

Since both locations are at the same elevation, z 4 – z2 = 0. As before, we have p4 = 0, and, the
manometer equation for the water height h2 at station (2) is p2 + w(0.05 m) = 0 or p2 = -(0.05 m)w.
Making these substitutions and the value of V4 = 23.1 m/s found above gives.

(c) Determine the pressure at section (1) required to produce this flow.
This time we apply the Bernoulli equation between points (1) and (4).

Since both locations are at the same elevation, z 4 – z1 = 0. As before, we have p4 = 0, Since the
flow areas at both points (1) and (4) are the same, the two velocities are the same. These

Here we have one inlet and one outlet and we assume steady flow. This gives the following
balance equations in the two directions. Note that the pressure force is in the +x direction at
station 1 with no y component and we have to resolve the components of the pressure force at
station 2; the x component is –p2A2cos 20o, because it acts in the minus-x direction; the y
component is p2A2sin20o, because it acts in the +y direction. Fx and Fy denote the x and y
components of force required to hold the bend in place.

For this system, Vx,1 = V1, Vy,1 = 0, Vx,2 = V2cos20o, and Vy,2 = –V2sin20o. The negative sign for Vy,2
is because it is in the minus-y direction.
The continuity equation tells us that the mass flow rate is the same at both inlet and outlet. In
addition, the water has constant density so the volume flow rate is constant. We can compute the
mass flow rate and the velocities at inlet and outlet from continuity relations.

Using the density of water as 998 kg/m3 we find the mass flow rate as

We are given P1 = 150 kPa, but we do not know the value of P 2. Since the flow is frictionless and
we have already assumed that it has constant density, we can use Bernoulli’s equation to relate
points (1) and (2) and solve for P2.
