(5.2) A horizontal pipe line 40 m long is connected to a water tank at one end and discharges freely into the atmosphere at the other end. For the first 25 m of its length from the tank, the pipe is 150 mm in diameter and its diameter is suddenly enlarged to 300 mm thereafter. The height of water level in the tank is 8 m above the Centre of the pipe. Considering all losses of head which occur, determine the rate of flow. Take coefficient of friction, f= 0.01 for both sections of the pipe.

Transcribed Image Text:(5.2)
A horizontal pipe line 40 m long is connected to a water tank at one end
and discharges freely into the atmosphere at the other end. For the first 25
m of its length from the tank, the pipe is 150 mm in diameter and its
diameter is suddenly enlarged to 300 mm thereafter. The height of water
level in the tank is 8 m above the Centre of the pipe. Considering all losses
of head which occur, determine the rate of flow. Take coefficient of
friction, f= 0.01 for both sections of the pipe.
