| Introduction |
||
|
|
In a testing facility, the inlet and outlet velocities of a nozzle along the center line are measured to be 10 m/s and 50 m/s, respectively. Technician John is asked to provide a customer with the velocity and acceleration distribution of the fluid in the nozzle. The length of the nozzle is 0.5 m, as shown in the figure. | |
| Questions |
||
Derive the equations for the velocity and acceleration. What is the local acceleration of the fluid entering and exiting the nozzle? |
