Question
Two new cast-iron pipes in series connect two reservoirs (Figure 1). Both pipes are 300 m long and have diameters of 0.4 m and 0.6 m, respectively. The elevation of the water surface in reservoir A is 80 m and in reservoir B is 60 m. Reservoir A has a re-entrant tube and Reservoir B has a discharge tube that extends into the reservoir. There is also a fully open globe valve in the 0.6 m diameter pipe. Find the discharge of 10oC water from reservoir A to reservoir B. Use the rigorous Darcy-Weisbach method. [Hint: v (either v1 or v2, whichever you solve for first) is a function of 2 f’s]
