Hi,
I got a puzzling question. In a scenario where I have a pipe connected to an empty atmospheric tank and the flow is from the pipe into the tank.
Pressure at the pipe inlet is 500kPag and the pipe diameter and length is 6" and 5m respectively.
There are no fittings in between. I can safety assume that the pressure loss from pipe is negligible (including entrance loss).
So, can I say the pressure of the liquid just after it left the pipe is 500kPag or atm? If atm, does this energy gets converted to velocity?
Thanks.
Edit: Forgot to add the flow is at 180m3/hr, so not excessive to cause massive pressure loss.
