C IMPACT OF JET EXPERIMENT 1 Aim To find the impact force caused by a fluid jet on a horizontal plate and a hemispherical shell and compare it with the expected theoretical force. 2 Theory When a rubber ball strikes a solid surface it nicely rebounds from the solid surface. The amount of rebound would depend on the coefficient of restitution. However‚ when a steady fluid jet strikes a solid surface‚ it does not rebound. But‚ a stream of fluid is formed which moves over the surface and the fluid

kkkkkkkkk CVEN-3313 Theoretical Fluid Mechanics MODULE#4 : Application of Impact on a Jet 1. OBJECTIVE To use the momentum equation to estimate the force exerted by a jet on a stationary target. 2. THEORY The momentum equation in the vertical (z) direction can be written as: Applying the momentum equation for a control volume including the forces acting on a flat target or hemispherical target gives: (1a : flat) (1b : hemi) It is assumed that the velocity
