The above pipe is exchanged for a parallel pipe with a cross sectional area of 0.3m2 and is 20 m long, with a surface roughness coefficient of 0.005. The dynamicviscosity of the water is 1.002 x 10-3 Ns/m. Find the Reynold’s number of the flowand use Haarland’s formula to find the friction coefficient and Darcy’s formula todetermine the frictional pressure loss. Then determine the pressure at the outlet ofthe pipe.
