    Solving Basic Thermo Questions: Calculating Velocity and Area in an Open System

    I have question (probably figured that). I have an open system with mass flow rate going into one inlet and going through two outlets. I have all the terms for the two outlets (mass flow, velocity, area, temp, pressure). However for the inlet I'm missing the Velocity and Area. In solving for...

    Solving the Force Due to Pipe Bend Problem: Conservation of Momentum Approach

    Never mind I figured it out. Thanks anyway. I was using for my V2 the resultant vector for both V's. One is the magnitude in the dot product the other V is the vector found by the Vcos(30).

    Solving the Force Due to Pipe Bend Problem: Conservation of Momentum Approach

    I have question that I'm sure has been asked before. Maybe if you could point me to a thread that'd be great. The water flows steady discharging to atmosphere. I need to find the horizontal componant of force in the flanged joint & find if it's in tension or compression. I think I have a...
