Consider the figure shown below. If the flow rate of water from the tank is 0.03 m/s, the pressure at point 2 is 120kPa. Height of water in the tank is 4m and the pipe diameter is 160mm with a friction factor of 0.020.

A municipality wants to determine the flow rate into the plant based on pipe size, elevation difference, and assumed roughness, for the water supply reservoir is shown in the figure below. The pipe is an old 4-inch diameter Cast Iron with a Hazen Roughness coefficient of 100 & 223 feet long. The difference in elevation is 62 feet. The pipe has a strainer at the entrance (k-1.9), a valve (k=8.6), a check valve (k = 2:7) and 3- 90° bends (k-0.83). The flow exits into a receiving pond at the WTP.
