Consider auniform horizontal pipe of cross-sectional area A
carrying a liquid with mean velocity V, as shown Fig. 6.1. Let

and P2, V2 = Pressure intensity and velocity at sectioh 2 - 2

Byapplying Bemouli's equation between section 1 -1 and 2-2,

B Z1 Pa V Z2 + hf

But, Z1 =
Z2 as pipe is horizontàl

V2 as diameter of pipe is uniform.


V =

P2 + hf

(or) hf
(or) o h (P1 - P2) (1)
Let f be the frictional resistance per unit wetted area per

unit velocity, then frictional resistance as per Froude's

experiments is,

F1 f x wetted area x V2

f x PLVZ [Here P =wetted perimeter.. (2)


The forces acting on the liquid between sections 1 -

1 and

2-2 are,
Pressure force at section 1 - 1 = P2 A

Pressure force at section 2 - 2 P2A
(ii)
(ii) Frictional resistance F1 as shown in Fig
Resolving all the forces horizontally, we have
P1A - P2 A - F1 0

(or) (P1-P2)A = F1
