long. The pressure at section (1) is 300 kPa, and the pressure 

Water flows steadily in a 100 mm diameter galvanized-iron pipe 200 m long. The pressure at section (1) is 300 kPa, and the pressure at section (2) is 150 kPa. Minor losses are presented in the system through two 90 standard elbow, one globe valve, and one angle valve. For a volumetric flow rate of Q = 0.0053 m/s calculate: (a) The velocity in the pipe, (b)The major losses, (c) The minor Losses, (d) Height difference, h, between sections (1) and (2). Properties of water: p=1000 kg/m. = 1.14 x 10-3 kg/m-s. Hint: Graphs and tables to calculate minor and major losses are in the pages 2 and 3. %3! %3D (2) h = ?
