A fluid with a kinematic viscosity 1500 ft2/sec flows with an average velocity, v = 200 ft/sec through a round steel pipe with an inside diameter D=8 in, a relative roughness, 900 and a length of 60 ft. Within the length of the pipe there are two 90 deg standard elbow and a fully open globe valve. Determine the total energy loss within this pipe.

fluid mechanics 

A fluid with a kinematic viscosity 1500 ft2/sec flows with an average velocity, v = 200 ft/sec through a round
steel pipe with an inside diameter D=8 in, a relative roughness, 900 and a length of 60 ft. Within the length
of the pipe there are two 90 deg standard elbow and a fully open globe valve. Determine the total energy loss
within this pipe.
Note: consider the velocity is same throughout the pipe.
