Question:

Two identical pumps are used in parallel to move water through a pipeline from reservoir A to reservoir B where EA = 772 ft and En = 878 ft. The 2.0-ft-diameter pipe connecting the two reservoirs has a length of 4,860 ft. and CHw = 100. The pump characteristics are provided in the following table. Determine the discharge in the pipeline, the velocity of flow, and the pump head. Would the solution change if minor losses were considered?
