Water at 20°C is siphoned from a reservoir as shown in following figure. For d = 8 cm and D = 16 cm, determine (a) the minimum flow rate that can be achieved without cavitation occurring in the piping system at points 2 and 3 and (b) the maximum elevation of the highest point of the piping system to avoid cavitation. (c) Draw the HGL and the EGL for this system?
