Water flows steadily through the 180° reducing pipe bend as shown in the Fig. 5.27. At the inlet to the pipe, the pressure, velocity and cross-sectional area are 80 kPa (gauge), 5 m/s and 0.3 m²
, respectively. At the outlet, the cross-sectional area is 0.15 m²
. The pipe discharges to the atmosphere. Determine the force required to hold the pipe in place. Neglect the weight of the bend and the water weight.
