Water at 100°C flows through a 10 cm diameter pipe that has a 180 degree vertical turn as shown in the figure below. The volumetric flow rate is constant at 0.2 m3/s. The absolute pressure at position 1 is 64,000 Pa, and the absolute pressure at position 2 is 33,000 Pa. The weight of the fluid and pipe together is 10 kg. Please calculate the total force that vertical turn must withstand to remain in place assuming the system is at steady state.
