A steady jet of water comes from a hydrant and hits the ground some distance away, as shown in Fig. 8-56. If
the water outlet is 1m above the ground and the hydrant water pressure is 862 kPa, what distance from the
hydrant does the jet hit the ground? Atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa.
I The magnitude of v, can be obtained by noting that at the hydrant outlet the flow is entirely in the x
direction, v, = V;- Applying the Bernoulli equation between the interior of the hydrant and the outlet gives
Pi + pays + 4pVi=p2 + pays + }pV3. The pressure in the hydrant p, is given, and the outlet is open to the
atmosphere, 22 Paum- The elevation of points 1 and 2 is the same, y, = y2. We assume that the outlet area is
small enough compared with the hydrant cross-sectional area for the hydrant to be essentially a reservoir,
Vi« V3, Neglecting V;, we get v, = V(2/p)(P: — Pam)- Since v, is constant, it can be brought outside the
integral for I, giving != v,T.
To find the time T required for a fluid particle to hit the ground, we apply the Bernoulli equation between
point 1 and some arbitrary point on the jet having elevation y and velocity V: p, + pgh
Now V?=v? + vj. When we use the previously determined value of v, and note that v,
‘equation becomes (dy/dt)” = 2g(h — y). We take the square root (the negative root is the appropriate one since
—Vig(h= y). Then we separate variables and integrate between the limits of

Integrating and solving for T gives T = V2h/g. The y component of the fluid motion is that of a body freely
falling under the influence of gravity.
