A frictionless flow pipe has an ideal fluid flowing at a rate of 250 ft3 /sec. The inlet to the pipe is 5 ft in elevation and 2 ft in diameter. Over the 20 ft pipe, the elevation changes to 10 ft to clear a heat exchanger in the same room, and the diameter gradually transitions to 1 ft in diameter. If the pressure heat at the inlet to the pipe is 2000 ft of water, calculate the pressure head at the end of the pipe.
