Water resources engineering
Please refer to the attached image. The new cat iron pipe carrying a flow of 0.3 ft3/s becomes divided at point B and rejoins at point C. The elevation at the reservior surface is 1300 feet. The elevation at point D is 560 feet. The pipe diameters and lengths are listed below. What is the pressure at point D? Neglect minor losses. Use the Darcy-Weisbach approach and assume fully turbulent flow. Verify this assumption for one of the pipes. If the assumption is not perfect, iteration is not necessary, just verify and comment.
| Pipe designation | Length (ft) | Dia (in) |
| 1 | 800 | 6 |
| 2 | 200 | 8 |
| 3 | 300 | 4 |
| 3 | 1200 | 12 |
