Question: Question 2 : Water is pumped from the river through a 4 0 - mm - diameter hose having a length of 3 m .

Question 2: Water is pumped from the river through a 40-mm-diameter hose having a length of
3 m. Determine the maximum volumetric discharge from the hose at C so that cavitation will
not occur within the hose. The friction factor is f =0.028 for the hose, and the gage vapor
pressure for water is -98.7 kPa. \rho =1000 kg/m3

(20 points).
Neglecting the minor losses in the pipes, for the given data, using Hardy-Cross Method, determine the flow
in each pipe. Note that for simplicity, let f=0.0193 for pipes constant, do for \Delta Q <0.5 lt/s.
