Unit-i Impact Of Jet On Vanes 1z1wt

Impact of Jets Introduction: If the fluid is moving with high velocity, then it is called jet. Generally Nozzle is used to increase the kinetic energy of fluid. The study of forces resulting from the impact of fluid jets and when fluids are diverted round pipe bends involves the application of newtons second law in the form of F = m.a. The forces are determined by calculating the change of momentum of the flowing fluids.

In nature these

forces manifest themselves in the form of wind forces, and the impact forces of the sea on the harbour walls. The operation of hydro-kinetic machines such as turbines depends on forces developed through changing the momentum of flowing fluids. When the jet moves and strikes the obstruction like flat plate, vane in its path. Then the jet will exert the force on the obstruction, it is known as Impact of Jet. The Impulse Momentum Principle is used to calculate the hydrodynamic force of jet on the vane. This principle is derived from the Newton’s II Law of Motion.

Newton’s II Law of Motion: Newtons Second Law can be stated as: The force acting on a body in a fixed direction is equal to rate of increase of momentum of the body in that direction. Force and momentum are vector quantities so the direction is important. A fluid is essentially a collection of particles and the net force, in a fixed direction, on a defined quantity of fluid equals the total rate of momentum of that fluid quantity in that direction “The rate of change of momentum of a moving body is directly proportional to the magnitude of the applied force and takes place in the direction of the applied force”.

The capacity of a moving body to impart motion to other bodies is called momentum. The momentum of a moving body is given by the product of mass and velocity of the moving body. Momentum = Mass x Velocity =mxV SI Unit: kg-m/s

Impulsive Force and Impulse of Force: A force acting over a short interval of time on a body is called impulsive force. Eg: Kick given to a foot ball. Impulse of a force is given by the product of magnitude of force and its time of action. Impulse of a force = Force x Time interval SI unit: N-sec.

Impulse – Momentum Principle: This principle is derived from the Newton’s IInd law . From the Newton’s IInd law

Applications of Impulse – Momentum Principle: The followings are the applications of Impulse Momentum Principle. 1. To calculate the hydrodynamic force on stationary and moving vanes. 2. To calculate resultant force on pipe bend 3. To calculate the propulsive force on propulsive ships.

Let, V = Velocity of jet a = Cross sectional area of the jet w = Specific weight of water Mass of water flowing/s = waV/g kg We know that the velocity of jet, in its original direction, is reduced to zero after the impact (as the plate is fixed).

Consider a jet of water imping normally on a plate. As a result of the impact of the jet, let the plate move in the direction of the jet as shown in fig-3.

Let,

A little conversation will show that the relative velocity of the jet with respect to the plate equal to (V-v)m/s. For analysis purposes, it will be assumed that the plate is fixed and the jet is moving with a velocity of (V-v)m/s. Therefore force exerted by the jet,

As the jet of water enters and leaves the vanes tangentially, therefore shape of the vanes will be such that Vr and Vr1 will be along with tangents to the vanes at inlet and outlet. The relations between the inlet and outlet triangles (untill and unless given) are: (i)v=v1, and (ii)Vr=Vr1 We know that the force of jet, in the direction of motion of the vane, F= mass of water flowing per sec.
