Total head loss of
between Point 1 and Point 2 in the given figure is 9 m. Water is
flowing at volumetric flow rate of 0.05 m3/s in Pipe A. All
pipes are made of commercial steel. The kinematic viscosity of
water is 1.033x10-6 m2/s. Neglecting minor losses, find
the volumetric flow rate in Pipe B. The length and diameter of
pipes are given on the figure. (Note: If iteration is
required, stop after the second iteration.)
