A pipeline ABC 300 m long, is laid on an upward slope of 1 in 60. The length of the portion AB is 150 m and its diameter is 0.15 m. At B the pipe section suddenly enlarges to 0.30 m diameter and remains so for the remainder of its length BC, 150m. A flow of 50 L/s is flowing into the pipe at its lower end A and is discharged at the upper end C into a closed tank. The pressure at the supply end A is 140 kPa. Determine the maximum pressure at point C if f = 0.02 and the celerity is 2000 m/s.

Question
A pipeline ABC 300 m long, is laid on an upward slope of 1 in 60. The length of the
portion AB is 150 m and its diameter is 0.15 m. At B the pipe section suddenly enlarges
to 0.30 m diameter and remains so for the remainder of its length BC, 150m. A flow of
50 L/s is flowing into the pipe at its lower end A and is discharged at the upper end C
into a closed tank. The pressure at the supply end A is 140 kPa. Determine the
maximum pressure at point C if f = 0.02 and the celerity is 2000 m/s.
