Figure 1.5
Diagrammatic representation of heads in a liquid flowing through a pipe
Example 1.1
The contents of the tank shown in Figure 1.6 are heated by circulating the
liquid through an external heat exchanger. Bernoulli's equation can be
used to calculate the head Ah that the pump must generate. It is assumed
here that the total losses hI have been calculated. Locations A and B might
be considered but these are unsuitable because the flow changes in the
region of the inlet and oudet and the conditions are therefore unknown.
