Question

Fluid mechanics! Please answer and explain (w/ details). Will rate!

3) Consider flow through an industrial water pipe. A technician needs to measure the pressure drop along the pipe from P2 to Pi (ie. find what P2- Pi is). Instead of using Castor Oil only, the technician accidently fills the manometer with Decane. Use the manometer shown below to calculate the pressure difference between the two locations along the pipe. Express your answer symbolically using the given parameters as well as fluid properties you look up (a) (b) Assume h1-5 cm, h2 20 cm, h3 3 cm, and L 50 cm. Plot how the pressure difference changes as a function of α where α ranges from 10 to 90 degrees. Decane Castor oil li h2 P2 Water
