Answer to Question #26688 in Engineering for Todd

Question

I have a fluid dynamics question.

If I have a constant stream of water moving 7 ft/s that flows directly into a rectangular 8" x 6" opening (at the collection end) that tapers down over a 15" length to a 8" x 1-1/2" outlet, how much will the speed and pressure increase at the outlet.

Thanks a bunch,

Todd
