Question: Applied Hydraulics # 3 . 1 2 . 6 . Pipes A B and C F in the Figure P 3 . 1 2 .

Applied Hydraulics #3.12.6.
Pipes AB and CF in the Figure P3.12.6 have a diameter of 3m and Darcy-Weisbach friction factor of 0.02. The length of AB is 1,000m and that of CF is 900m. The discharge in pipe AB is 60m3s. Branch 1 is 1,000m long, has a diameter of 2m, and a friction factor of 0.018. Branch 2 has a length of 800m, a diameter of 3m, and a friction factor of 0.02. A discharge of 20m3s is added to the flow at point B and 10m3s is taken out at point C as shown in the figure. (a) Determine the total head loss due to friction between section A and F and (b) determine the discharge in each of branches 1 and 2.
