Question:

Refer to Figure 7.14. Assume that the head loss in the pipes is given by hL = 0.02(L/D)(V 2/2g), where V is the mean velocity in the pipe, D is the pipe diameter, and L is the pipe length. The water surface elevations of the upper and lower reservoirs are 100 m and 60 m, respectively. The respective dimensions for upstream and downstream pipes are Du = 32 cm, Lu = 190 m, Dd = 12 cm, and Ld = 110 m. Determine the discharge of water in the system.
