Figure 4
Given:
A = 125.78 kPa
F = 141.643 kPa
Value of x ;
1 + 2 + 3 4 + 5 =
1 1 + 2 2 + 3 3 4 4 + 5 5 =
125780 0.9(9810)(0.45 0.20) + 1.5(9810)(0.45 0.27) + 13.6(9810)(0.27 0.15)
0.7(9810)( 0.15) + 1.0(9810)( 0.33) = 141643
Using calculator, solve for x.
= 0.55

Absolute pressure value at B

= 1 1
= 125780 0.9(9810)(0.45 0.20)
= 123572.75

Absolute pressure value at D

= + 3 3
= 126221.45 + 13.6(9810)(0.27 0.15)
= 142231.37

Absolute pressure value at C

= + 2 2
= 123572.75 + 1.5(9810)(0.45 0.27)
= 126221.45

Absolute pressure value at E

= + 4 4
= 142231.37 0.7(9810)( 0.15)
= 142231.37 0.7(9810)(0.55 0.15)
= 139484.57
