Question: HYDRAULICS ASSIGNMENT # 2 Question: Three pipes A , B and C are interconnected with each other as shown where the water is flowing within

HYDRAULICS ASSIGNMENT #2
Question:
Three pipes A, B and C are interconnected with each other as shown where the water is flowing within this system at 18.5C. Over the figure topographic elevations 'z' of some points are also given. Along the pipe A, there exists a single (one) water-pump (its charateristics are detailed in the below appropriate table). The pipe characteristics and the total minor loss coefficients for each pipe is given in the relevant table below. The working regions atmospheric pressure is 101.300kPa (absolute). Find the flow rate 'Q' passing in each pipe?
