Oil Flow in a Constricted Pipe
Oil with a specific gravity SG=0.9 is pumped through the apparatus shown in Figure 2. The velocity at the upstream section is vup=1.7ms-1 whereas the velocity in the downstream (i.e., constricted) section is vdown=7ms-1. On the upstream side there is a piezometer whereas on the downstream side there is both a piezometer and a Pitot tube. Assuming viscous effects are negligible, find the height differences for z2 and z3.
