Problem

The jet pump in Fig. P3.36 injects water at U1=40U_1 = 40 m/s through a 3-in-pipe and entrains a secondary flow of water U2=3U_2 = 3 m/s in the annular region around the small pipe (D1=3D_1 = 3 in, D2=10D_2 = 10 in). The two flows become fully mixed downstream, where U3U_3 is approximately constant. For steady incompressible flow, compute U3U_3 in m/s.
