Water is carried through two steel horizontal pipes in series. The upstream pipe is 110 mm of 600 mm diameter, and the downstream pipe is 37 m of 900 mm diameter. Consider all the losses including losses due to sudden expansion (neglect entry and exit minor losses). Determine the pressure drop required for flow of 2.8 m³/s. Assume kinematic viscosity to be 1.21(10)-5 m²/s. Use the provided Moody diagram and Table 1.

Water is carried through two steel horizontal pipes in series. The upstream pipe is 110
mm of 600 mm diameter, and the downstream pipe is 37 m of 900 mm diameter.
Consider all the losses including losses due to sudden expansion (neglect entry and
exit minor losses).
Determine the pressure drop required for flow of 2.8 m³/s. Assume kinematic
viscosity to be 1.21(10)-5 m²/s.
Use the provided Moody diagram and Table 1.
