b) A 1000 m long pipeline is connecting two reservoirs having a difference of water level of 16 m. The pipe raises to a height of 3 m above the upper reservoir at a distance of 400 m from the entrance before falling to the lower reservoir. If the water elevation in upper reservoir is 200 m and the diameter of the new cast iron pipe is 0.5 m, (1) Calculate discharge through the pipe (neglect minor losses) using Darcy's equation. (ii) Draw HGL and TEL for the pipe system (iii) Either analytically or graphically estimate the pressure at the highest point of the pipe.
