Question: Water ( 1 5 C ) flows at 1 . 5 m / s through a horizontal run of worn cast iron pipe ( inner

Water (15C) flows at 1.5 m/s through a horizontal run of worn cast iron pipe (inner diameter 6 in). Over 300 m of pipe, determine the head loss and the pressure drop.
(a) Determine the power [W] needed to overcome the head loss.
(b) Draw the EGL and HGL without pump and with pump. Assume a starting pressure of 98,000 Pa, gage. Place the pump midway along the 300 m of pipe.
