List of top General Engineering Questions on Thermal and Fluids Engineering asked in GATE PI

An irrigation pump is used to draw water from a pond. One end of a 5.05 cm diameter hose pipe is connected to the outlet of the pump at 1.02 m below the surface level, and just after the pump, the static gauge pressure and flow rate of the water are 50 kPa and 8 kg/s, respectively. The pumped water is discharged at the ground level through a nozzle. Assume that the flow through the hose pipe and nozzle is steady and laminar, and frictional and viscous losses are negligible. The density of water is 1000 kg/m3 and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s2. If the static pressure at the nose/exit of the nozzle just reduces to atmospheric pressure then the nose diameter (in cm) of the nozzle is _____ . (Rounded off to 2 decimal places)
