Water (density = 1000 kg/m3) flows through a duct that makes a 180 degree U-shaped bend (see below). Assume that the fluid is incompressible through the duct and the velocity at the inlet is V1 = 24 m/s. Assume that the momentum-flux correction factor at both inlet (point 1) and outlet (point 2) is 2.1. The gage pressures are P1 = 120 kPa at the inlet and P2 = 248 kPa at the outlet of the bend. The inlet is 2 m above the outlet. Cross-sectional areas are A1 = 0.02 m2 and A2 = 0.04 m2. What is the force of the duct on the fluid? The weight of the control volume may be ignored.
