Question: Consider pipe network below with friction factor of 0 . 0 2 . Pipe A B is has a length of 5 0 0 0

Consider pipe network below with friction factor of 0.02. Pipe AB is has a length of 5000 ft and a diameter of 3 ft .
Each of the pipes BC,BD,CE, and DE have a length of 1000 ft and a diameter of 2 ft . Pipe DC is 1,410ft long and
has a diameter of 2 ft . The final solution obtained for this network indicates that the flows in pipes BC,CE, and DE
are respectively 20cfs,10cfs, and 10 cfs as shown in the figure. Also, the energy head at D is 100 feet. Determine:
a. The water surface elevation in Reservoir A,
b. The energy loss in pipe DC.
