Question: ( b ) Estimate the flow rate in the 5 0 k m long, 3 0 0 m m diameter pipe, shown in Figure Q

(b) Estimate the flow rate in the 50km long, 300mm diameter pipe, shown in Figure Q2a
which runs full containing the following:
5 No.90 bends (k=0.5)
10 No.45 bends ({:k=0.25)
5 No. gate values (k=0.3)
1 bell mouth entry (k=0.1)
1 bell mouth exit (k=0.45
6 No.30 bend (k=0.21)
Assume a kinematic viscosity of 1.1310-6m2s and roughness of 0.05mm. Make only
one adjustment in your estimate of u.
( b ) Estimate the flow rate in the 5 0 k m long,
