Compute the resulting pressure in kPa after a "real" diffuser in which the energy loss due to sudden enlargement is considered for the flow of water at 25°C from a 36 mm OD x 2.0 mm wall copper tube to an 85 mm OD x 2.5 mm wall copper tube, the pipes are the same elevation. The volume flow rate is 150 L/min and the pressure before the enlargement is 516.614 kPa.
