A hydraulic system in an industrial plant involves the transportation of hydraulic oil through a network of pipes. The initial pipe has a diameter of 120 mm, and the oil flows at a rate of 0.08 m^3/s. The pipe then expands suddenly to a diameter of 240 mm. The pressure intensity in the smaller pipe is 12.5 N/ cm ^2. The hydraulic system is critical for the efficient operation of heavy machinery. Calculate i) Loss of head due to sudden enlargement. (ii) Power lost due to enlargement. (iii) Pressure intensity in the larger pipe. A hydraulic system in an industrial plant involves the transportation of hydraulic oil through a network of pipes.
