A pump is used to deliver discharge of 0.3 m3/s from a river to a storage reservoir. The system consists of 600m of 0.2 m diameter cast iron pipe with a 90° bend with a radius of 0.8m, which then transitions(θ=60°) to a 0.16m cast iron pipe 200 m long. The pipe entrance is sharp and square edged. The exit losses can be ignored. Calculate the total minor losses in (m).
