M1

From a reservoir A, whose free surface is at an
elevation of 25m, water flows into another reservoir
B, whose surface is at an elevation of 18m. The
reservoirs are connected by a 30cm diameter, 30m
long pipe (f=0.020) followed by another 30m of
15cm pipe (f=0.015). There are two 90° elbows in
each pipe (k=0.50 for each of them), K for
contraction is equal to 0.75 and the 30 cm pipe
enters tank A. If the elevation of the sudden
contraction is 16m. Determine the head of pressure
in the 30 and 15 cm pipes at the section change.
Present a plan to scale using a grid sheet.
