The pressure heads are measured at two sections in a pipeline and are found to be 8.3 m at point A and 76.7 m at point B. The two sections are 5.5 km apart along a 4.5-m-diameter riveted-steel pipe (best condition). A is 100 m higher than B. If the water temperature is 20°C, what is the flow rate? Minor losses are negligible. The answer is Q= 95.6m3/s (Need help getting there)
