Question: In the pipe system shown below the pipe has a diameter of 3 0 c m , and it is 2 7 5 m long

In the pipe system shown below the pipe has a diameter of 30cm, and it is 275m long from A to S. The equivalent roughness height of the pipe, e, is 0.26mm. The kinematic viscosity is n=1.1310-6m2s. The minor head loss coefficients are: Ke=0.5 for entrance losses, and Kd=1.0 for exit losses. The water surface elevations are h1=730m, and h2=505m. The discharge is Q=440Ls.
Determine the velocity of the flow between reservoirs in ms.
