Chapter 8, Problem 124P
A horizontal 50-mm-diameter PVC pipeline leaves (square- edged entrance) a water tank 3 m below its free surface. At 15 m from the tank, it enlarges abruptly to a 100-mm-diameter pipe which runs 30 m horizontally to another tank, entering it 0.6 m below its surface. Calculate the flow rate through the line for a water temperature of 20°C, including all head losses.
