DISCUSSION You might be tempted to write Bernoulli’s equation from the atmosphere
(V = 0) to cross section 1. This is not valid since the pressure at cross section 1 is greater
than the atmospheric pressure, which indicates that a fan was used to put energy into the
flow. Bernoulli’s equation does not apply to a flow stream with a fan or a turbine or other
device that changes its energy.

up into tubes attached to static pressure taps along the channel wall is linear with distance
along the channel. That is max
