Two columns are connected in succession.
Pressure P1 is initially applied. The final
pressure is the atmospheric pressure P
0
.
This results in pressure distributions and
flows as shown on the left.
Conclusion:
with the "straight operation" shown in the
graphic, the pressure P2 is produced in the
middle between the two columns.
Note
In real processes, the curve for the pressure drop is nonlinear.
