Water flows in a horizontal pipe of d1=100 mm with a velocity wt=1m/s and pressure p1=90 kPa. It enters a pipe reduction to a diameter d2=50 mm. Pressure after the pipe reduction drops to p2=80 kPa while temperature is unchanged. Find entropy generation rate in the zone of the pipe reduction. Assume that the surroundings is at Ts=20?C and pressure is ps=80kPa and the steady state is considered. What will be the exit pressure after the pipe reduction if the process was reversible? Water density is ?=1000kg/m^3. Specific enthalpy and entropy of the water can be calculated from formulae: h=href+cT[K]+?(?-?ref), where c=4.19 KJ/(kgK).
