If the head loss in a 30 m of length of a 75-mm-diameter pipe is 7.6 m for a given flow rate of water, what is the total drag force exerted by the water on this length of pipe?

526.5 KN

Explanation:

The total head loss in a pipe is a sum of pressure head, kinetic energy head and potential energy head.

But the pipe is assumed to be horizontal and the velocity through the pipe is constant, Hence the head loss is just pressure head.

h = (P₁/ρg) - (P₂/ρg) = (P₁ - P₂)/ρg

where ρ = density of the fluid and g = acceleration due to gravity

h = ΔP/ρg

ΔP = ρgh = 1000 × 9.8 × 7.6 = 74480 Pa

Drag force over the length of the pipe = Dynamic pressure drop over the length of the pipe × Area of the pipe that the fluid is in contact with

Dynamic pressure drop over the length of the pipe = ΔP = 74480 Pa

Area of the pipe that the fluid is in contact with = 2πrL = 2π × (0.075/2) × 30 = 7.069 m²

Drag Force = 74480 × 7.069 = 526468.1 N = 526.5 KN

unlike the threaded fasteners which are used to clamp the machine members, power screws are used to transmit power. common applications of power screws are: screw jacks: to lift weight. lead screw of lathe: for axial movement of tool and its precise positioning.
