Hydraulics and Fluid Mechanics in ME
A hydraulic press has a ram of 15 cm diameter and plunger of 1.5 cm. It is required to lift a weight of 1 tonne. The force required on plunger is equal tc
Suction lift + Loss of head in suction pipe due to friction + Delivery lift + Loss of head in delivery pipe due to friction + Velocity head in the delivery pipe
Energy per kN at outlet of impeller Energy per kN at inlet of impeller
Work-done per kN of water Losses within the impeller
