\textbf{Objective : }\textup{To determine the maximum value of h allowed.}

Solution :

\textup{At 30}^o\textup{C the vapor pressure of water }P_v=4.2343\, \, kPa

Assume that minimum pressure is at the top of the hose : P3 = P

\textup{Applying energy equation between (1) and (3) :}

\therefore \frac{P_1}{\rho g}+\frac{V_1^2}{2g}+z_1=\frac{P_3}{\rho g}+\frac{V_3^2}{2g}+z_3+f\frac{L_{1-3}}{D}\frac{V^2_3}{2g}

\textup{As we know, }P_1=P_{atm}=101.325 \, \, kPa\, \, (abs), z_1=3\, \, m,\, \,L_{1-3}=10\,\, m

V_1=0, \, \, V_3=V,\, \,z_3=7\, \, m\, \, \textup{and }\, \, P_3=P_v

\therefore \frac{101.325\times 10^3}{(995.92)(9.81)}+0+3=\frac{4.2343\times 10^3}{(995.92)(9.81)}+\frac{V^2}{2(9.81)}+7+(0.02)\frac{10}{0.012}\left (\frac{V^2}{2(9.81)} \right )

\therefore V=2.5679\, \, m/s\, \, \, \, \, \textup{(Velocity inside the pipe.)}

.

\textup{To obtain h applying energy equation between (1) and (2)} :

\therefore \frac{P_1}{\rho g}+\frac{V_1^2}{2g}+z_1=\frac{P_2}{\rho g}+\frac{V_2^2}{2g}+z_2+f\frac{L_{1-2}}{D}\frac{V^2_2}{2g}

\textup{As we know, }P_1=P_2=P_{atm}=0 \, \, kPa\, \, (gage), z_1=3\, \, m,\, \,L_{1-2}=40\,\, m

V_1=0, \, \, V_2=V,\,\, \textup{ and } \,z_2=-h\, \, m\, \,

\therefore0+0+3=0+\frac{(2.5679)^2}{2(9.81)}-h+(0.02)\frac{40}{0.012}\left (\frac{(2.5679)^2}{2(9.81)} \right )

\therefore h=19.7\, \, m

.

\textup{Let us check our assumption that minimum pressure occurs at (3) :}

\textup{From figure : }\frac{L}{z_x}=\frac{L_{2-3}}{h+7}

\therefore \frac{L}{z_x}=\frac{30}{19.7+7}

\therefore L=1.122 z_x

\textup{Applying energy equation between (x) and (2) :}

\therefore \frac{P_x}{\rho g}+\frac{V_x^2}{2g}+z_x=\frac{P_2}{\rho g}+\frac{V_2^2}{2g}+z_2+f\frac{L_{2-x}}{D}\frac{V^2_2}{2g}

\textup{As we know, }P_2=P_{atm}=0\, \, (gage), V_2=V_x=V,\, \, z_2=0(\textup{ (2) as datum})

\therefore \frac{P_x}{\rho g}+\frac{V^2}{2g}+z_x=0+\frac{V^2}{2g}+0+f\frac{1.122z_x}{D}\frac{V^2}{2g}

\therefore \frac{P_x}{\rho g}=(0.02)\frac{1.122z_x}{0.012}\left (\frac{2.5679^2}{2(9.81)} \right )-z_x

\therefore P_x=-0.3716z_x\times (995.9)(9.81)

\therefore P_x=-3630.6z_x

\textup{Hence, As the value of }z_x\textup{ increases, }P_x\textup{ decreases .}

\textup{Therefore, the assumed minimum pressure occurs at (3) is correct .}
