Pipeline AB connects two reservoirs. The difference in elevation between the two reservoirs is 33 ft . The pipeline consists of an
upstream section, D1=30 in and L1=5000ft and a downstream section, D2=21 in and L2=3500ft. The pipes are concrete
(f=0.016) and are connected end to end with a sudden reduction area. Compute the discharge capacity.
The total discharge from A to B in figure is 14 cfs. Determine the discharge in each pipe if the pipes used are cast Iron (f=0.018)
Pipeline AB connects two reservoirs. The
