For the figure shown below, a pipe connects two reserviors. An 8 inch pipe (blue in the figure) exits the upper reservoir with a flush square edge entrance, is 264 feet long, and has 2- long-radius 90° elbows (k- 0.6) and a swing check valve (green on the blue pipe, k-2.5). The 8-inch pipe suddenly transitions to an 12- inch pipe (green in figure) for another 350 feet. There are 2-45 bends (k-0.4) and an Angle valve fully open (red in the figure, * -5) in the 12-inch pipe. If the flow reading is 1,500 GPM, what is the total head loss for the system? 0 4 ft O 10 ft O 24 ft O 42 ft Blue pipe D=8-in. f=0.024 Green pipe D=12" f=0.022
