1. Water flows through a horizontal, 0.5-m-diameter pipe at a rate of 0.9 m³/s (Figure below). It is ejected from the pipe through a 0.25-m-diameter nozzle.

Given H= 1.8 m & D = 0.2 m through the hole in the open top container. Determine the head losses through the tank outlet if the exit discharge were 0.163 m³/sec.
The flow is opened to the atmosphere at point D which is fed by a very wide reservoir that has a water surface elevation of (5+) meters as shown in the figure given below. Elevation of the horizontal axis BC is 1 meter. At sections AB the diameter of the pipe is (0.2+- meters and CD the diameter of the 100 pipe is (0.3+: meters. The flow is ideal (inviscid) and absolute atmosphere pressure is 9.81 N/cm?. Considering the pipe's diameter is (0.15+; m at section BC, find the discharges and the 100 а. velocities of the flow at other sections (AE, EB, BC, CF, FD). Draw the energy and hydraulic grade lines of the system. b. Assuming the system discharge is constant and has the value you have found in (a), calculate the minimum pipe diameter that the section BC can take and draw the energy and hydraulic grade lines of this situation.

A steel pipe is used to drain water from a reservoir that is 50 m above the datum, and water is discharged into the air at the elevation of the datum.
