Calculate the velocity of water coming out of a double-entry pipe

Posted by

If we know the volumetric flow rates of the water going into the two branches, then what would be the velocity of the water coming out?

    Elizabeth is correct.

    Richard, v1a1 = 7000 in^3 = v2a2. You just divide 7000 by A2 to get v2. A2 = 9*pi

  2. 247.6 in/s
