A.S.M.E.]1 A reservoir of water is connected to an 8" diameter pipe 50 feet long (new cast iron) and discharging freely. The WSE=410.0 and the centerline pipe elevation is 372.5 feet. Determine the velocity and discharge at the end of the pipe if friction is considered. What is the percent reduction in velocity if friction is considered? (refer to last homework assignment answer) Use the Darcy-Weisbach equation and Moody's Diagram-see attached.
#2 Two reservoirs (Elev 1132' and 1079.5' are connected by a 12" concrete pipe (425' long). Determine the velocity and discharge in the pipe. Consider pipe friction but neglect minor losses. Use the Darcy-Weisbach equation and Moody's Diagram-see attached.
