Water flows through an 8-inch steel pipe at an average velocity of 6 ft/s. Downstream the pipe divides into an 8 inch main and 2 inch bypass. The equivalent length of the bypass is 22 ft; length of the 8-inch pipe in the bypassed section is 16 ft. Neglecting entrance and -rit losses What fraction of the total water flow passes through the bypass?
