Water flows through a pipe 5cm in diameter and 32m long between two tanks with a square-edged non-projecting entrance and exit. The flow rate is controlled by a gate valve which when fully open has a loss factor of 0.23.

What is the height difference between the tanks if the volume flow rate is 4.2 x10-3 m^3/s?

For laminar flow f=16/Re

For turbulent flow f=0.08/Re^0.25

Density of water, rho, is 1000 kg/m^3, viscosity of water, mu , is 0.001Pa.s.

Water flows through a pipe 5cm in diameter and 32m long between two tanks with
square edged non projecting entrance and exit. The flow rate is controlled by a gate
valve which when fully open has a loss factor of 0.23. What is the height difference
between the tanks if the volume flow rate is 4.2 x10-³ m³/s.
For laminar flow f=16/Re
For turbulent flow f=0.08/Reº
Density of water, p, is 1000kg/m³, viscosity of water, µ, is 0.001Pa.s.
