We were discussing the basics
of shear stress in turbulent flow, minor
head losses in pipe flow, hydraulic
gradient and total energy line, basic concept and working of
syphon, flow
through pipes in series, flow
through pipes in parallel and flow through branched pipes in the subject of
fluid mechanics, in our recent posts.
Now we will go ahead to see the concept of power
transmission through pipes, efficiency of power transmission and we will also
find here the condition for maximum transmission of power, in the subject of
fluid mechanics, with the help of this post.
Power transmission through pipes
Power is transmitted through pipes by flowing water
or other liquids flowing through them. Power transmitted through pipes will be
dependent over the following factors as mentioned here.
- Weight of the liquid flowing through the pipe
- Total head available at the end of the pipe
Now we will consider a tank with which a pipe AB is
connected. Let us consider the following terms from figure.
L = Length of the pipe
D = Diameter of the pipe
H = Total head available at the inlet of the pipe
V= Velocity of flow in pipe
hf = Loss of head due to friction
f = Co-efficient of friction
Power transmitted at the outlet of the pipe will be
determined with the help of following formula as mentioned here.
Efficiency of power transmission
Efficiency of power transmission will be determined
with the help of following formula as mentioned here.
Condition for maximum transmission of power
Now we will find here the condition for maximum
transmission of power and it could be secured by differentiating the equation
of power transmitted at the outlet of the pipe.
Above expression is the condition of maximum
transmission of power. We can conclude from above equation that power
transmitted through a pipe will be maximum when the head loss due to friction
will be one-third of the total head at inlet.
Maximum efficiency of transmission of power
As we have already secured the equation of
efficiency of power transmission through pipe and it is as mentioned here.
η = (H- hf)/H
Now we will use the value of hf in above
equation to secure the maximum efficiency of transmission of power and we have
following result as mentioned here.
η = (H- hf)/H
η = (H- H/3)/H
η = 66.7 %
Further we will go ahead to find out the concept of flow through nozzles, in the subject of
fluid mechanics, with the help of our next post.

Excellent article. Very interesting to read. I really love to read such a nice article. Thanks! keep rocking. cheap electrician
ReplyDeleteCompression fittings are not fool proof. If the pipe is not seated all the way onto the seat, the joint will leak, thus it is imperative that the end of the pipe be cut flat.fittings
ReplyDeleteThe next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought you have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention. Wye Strainer
ReplyDeleteThe most straightforward ways property holders does to reline their channel lines would buy sealants, elastic sheets to envelop the line by or white concrete to cover holes and re-develop pipe harm. Be that as it may, this must be a brief arrangement and may cause greater obstacles in the line later on.pipe relining
ReplyDeleteAs innovation keeps on progressing, so does the manner in which handymen and workers for hire total sewer pipe fixes. Previously, there was by and large a significant exhuming that needed to happen to get to the harmed or spilling pipe. This interaction was both tedious and expensive. Accordingly, there have been new headways in sewer pipe fix over the course of the years including CIPP lining, pipe exploding, and then some. blocked drains eastern suburbs

ReplyDeletePVC pipes additionally keep up the nature of water, stop the spillage and gives incredible association between the lines. Differed PVC pipe machines are utilized to make changed sorts of lines and fittings like Plastic Single-divider Corrugated lines, PET Sheet Extrusion Line, Plain Socketing Machines, In-line Socketing Machine For Pvc Pipes, PVC Pipe Slotting Machine and then some. pipe relining
ReplyDeleteThese means and the standards for acquiring the assignment of expert handyman are set by the state. You should have 3-5 years of essential pipes insight, references, and breeze through a test to get a Journeyman or Master Plumbing permit.Kitchen Plumbing Burwood
ReplyDeleteAnother strategy for sewer pipe fix is called pipe exploding. This is normal when there is a necessity to supplant the whole existing sewer line. To begin, there is a little opening or opening made at the two sides of the harmed pipe. pipe relining
