Water at 59 F flows through a straight section of a 6-in-ID cast-iron pipe with an average velocity of 4 fps. The pipe is 120 ft long, and there is an increase in elevation of 2 ft from the inlet of the pipe to its exit. Find the power required to produce this flow rate for the specified conditions. solve for the head loss only

Fluid Dynamics

The study of the flow of gases and liquids, usually in and around solid surfaces, is known as fluid dynamics in physics and engineering. Fluid dynamics, for example, can be used to evaluate the movement of air through an airplane wing or the surface of a vehicle. It can also be used in ship design to increase the speed at which ships pass through water.
