Question: When the valve ( K L = 0 . 1 5 ) is opened, the water in a canal is pumped at 6 0 f

When the valve (KL=0.15) is opened, the water in a canal is pumped at 60ft3s through a drainage pipe (diameter d=1.4ft) across
a two-lane road embankment using a 22-hp turbine runs. The corrugated steel pipe of roughness 0.024-in has two bends of loss
coefficient KL=0.112. Use H=7.1ft and z=47.5ft. The width, D of the embankment is 54.5ft. Determine the efficiency of the
turbine [%].
When the valve ( K L = 0 . 1 5 ) is opened, the
