Question: A proposed PVC pipeline ( ( C = 1 3 0 ) ) has a design flow of 4 2 1 0

A proposed PVC pipeline (\( C=130\)) has a design flow of 4210\(\mathrm{gal}/\mathrm{min}\). The pipeline needs to be sized so the unit headloss does not exceed \(6\mathrm{ft}/1,000\mathrm{ft}\). First, compute the minimum standard diameter required to convey this flow rate and meet the max unit headloss criteria (In other words, when sizing the pipeline, round up your minimum diameter to the next even number). After determining the standard pipe diameter, compute the unit headloss in the pipe using the standard pipe diameter.
Round your headloss to the nearest whole number (\(\mathrm{ft}/1,000\mathrm{ft}\)).
