What effect do such losses have on your initial analysis of full-flow discharge? What other loss elements should be considered in the analysis? What value is there in your initial discharge analysis?

A municipal water supply diversion pipe carries flow from Lake Agnes to the watershed divide at
Cameron Pass. A 3.34-km long portion of the pipeline was reconstructed in 1984 using 1000-mm diameter
Spirolite high-density polyethylene (plastic) pipe and carrying 0.99 m³/s. If the pipeline must incorporate 8
45° miter bends (with a typical loss coefficient of 0.25) to accommodate the mountainside alignment, what is
the additional expected head loss (in m)?
