Series pipe ABCD consists of 10,000 ft of 20′′, 8000 ft of 16′′, and L ft of 12′′ (C = 120). What length L will make the ABCD pipes equivalent to a 15′′ pipe, 16,500 ft long, C = 100? If the length of the 12′′ pipe from C to D were 3000 ft, what flow (in mgd) would occur for a lost head of 135 ft from A to D?
