Hi, I unfortunately cant see the full explanation, is there any way the writing could be condensed to show all of it on the screen? 

Step 1: Given data and the parameters need to find out Given: Pipe diameter, d = 5 cm = 0.05 mWater flow rate, Q=350 L/min Step 2: 1) Calculation for the suitable layout which minimizes the losses The average velocity of water through the pipe is, u = OKA Solution || 元4 xd² WAS THIS HELPFUL? - 350 × 10-³ 60 × 0.05² π - - 350 × 10-³ 60 3 -m³/sElevation difference betwee Step 3:2) calculation of pressure drop in each layout a Two 45° bends Applying Bernoulli's equation at the pipe inlet 1 and the pipe exit 2, Pg +Z₁ + V₂² 2.97 m/sUsing Loss coefficient data - P + Z₂ + 1/2/2 1 The head loss in the Two 45° bends is the minimum. Hence, the layout of two 45° bends should be s
