Statement:
.(Adapted from Mays Textbook Problem 4.5.6). Points 1 and 2 are at the same elevation, and their difference in water pressure is 30. All the pipes in the systems are galvanized iron with roughness ks=0.0005ft. The kinematic viscosity v is 1.0610-5fts. Ignore all local losses.
igure 14.5.0
Use this information to evaluate the following:
a. The head loss hL(in feet) between points 1 and 2.
b. The relative roughness ksD.
c. The friction factor f for each pipe segment assuming fully turbulent flow.
d. The flow rate Q(in cfs) in each pipe segment (based on the assumed friction factors).
e. The Reynolds Number Re and (using the results from part c).
f. The friction factor f for each pipe segment (using Re part e and ksD).
g. The flow rate Q(in cfs) in each pipe segment (based on the friction factors from part f).
h. Show whether the solution has converged or not [Hint: Repeat steps e and f and check whether revised estimates of f are sufficiently closed to those assumed].
