Here inital diameter of section is 0.1 m and as it diverges so diameter at other end is 0.2 m, length of section =1 m, rate of flow = 100 ltr/s
(i) In case first flow rate is constant
Q= 100×10−3m3/s
Let at some distance x the diameter of pipe will be
Dx=D1+LD2−D1x=0.1+10.2−0.1x=0.1+0.1x=0.1(1+x)
Area=A=43.14Dx2=0.785(0.1(1+x))2
velocity of flow=u= AQ=0.00785(1+x)20.01
In steady state condition we know that local acceleration will be zero
δtδu=0
and the value of convective acceleration will be
a=uδxδu=0.00785(1+x)20.01×(δxδ(0.00785(1+x)2)0.01))
at mid point , x=0.5
a= 0.007852(1+0.5)2−2×0.5×0.01=42.7s2m
(b) when rate of flow varies then local acceleration will not be zero it will have some value too, at t=2 sec
a=0.00785(1+x)20.01δtδQ =1.132 m/s^2
and here as discharge also changing from 100 l/s to 200 l/s
so convective acceleration
a=0.007852(1+0.14)2−2×0.14×0.01=83.77s2m
