Question: In the figure given, there are 1 2 5 ft of ( 2 - ) in pipe, 7 5 ft of 6 -

In the figure given, there are 125 ft of \(2-\) in pipe, 75 ft of 6-in pipe and 150 ft of \(3-\) in pipe, all iron cast. The roughness of the pipes due to the material is \(950.10^{-}\)6 in. There are two 900 elbows (resistance coefficient, kL, is 0.57 for the 2-in pipe) and an open globe valve. The flowrate through the pipes is \(0.16\mathrm{ft}^{3}/\mathrm{s}\). If the turbine head is 76.73 ft , what is the resistance coefficient kL of the open globe?
In the figure given, there are 1 2 5 ft of \ ( 2
