Pressure resistance issue of drainage pipes
Thread Content
There is a pressure vessel with an internal pressure of 5 Mpa. A 5 mm hole has been made in its wall, and a hose with an inner diameter of 6 mm is connected to it via a fitting; this hose can withstand a pressure of 1 Mpa. The hose is used to drain the water from the vessel into a tank that is about 5 meters long. During the drainage process, the pressure inside the vessel remains relatively constant. Can the hose handle such pressure? What pressure is exerted on the hose during this drainage process?
It definitely won’t work. If it’s just for releasing pressure, maybe it might work, but since the pressure at the source is always 5 MPa, a hose with a capacity of only 1 MPa certainly won’t be able to handle that pressure; the connection point with the container will burst
I’m not sure if there’s a valve connected to the hose; is it possible that the valve serves as the pressure boundary point while the hose remains open?
It’s too dangerous; the use of hoses is not recommended
I’m imagining the end of the hose moving around frantically.
