Current Attempt in Progress
The figure below shows a lateral pipe fitting. This particular fitting has a mainline diameter of 4.0 in. The diameter of the lateral is 3.0 in ., and the lateral angle is 45;60F water is flowing in the lateral. Measurements show that the pressure at point 1 is 34.0 psig, the pressure at point 2 is 35.0 psig , the pressure at point 3 is 33.5 psig , and the flow rate at point 2 is 1.0ft3s. Neglect the effect of gravity. Q1=1.83ft3s.
Determine the horizontal and vertical force components (Fx and Fy) required to hold the lateral fitting stationary.
Fx=
lb
Fy=
