As shown in the figure, a pipe system having a total length of 102 m carries a discharge of 0.060 m3 per second. The 30 m pipe has a diameter of 100 mm and the 12 m pipe has a diameter of 120 mm. The minor losses for the entrance, elbows and globe valves are 0.5, 0.9 and 10, respectively. If the friction factor f = 0.0225, compute the following: a) The equivalent length of the pipe (m), *The equivalent length of the pipe is the length of the pipe considering the total head losses. b) The head difference, H (m), c) The pressure difference between entrance and discharge end (kPa).

3. As shown in the figure, a pipe system having a total length of 102 m carries a discharge of 0.060 m3 per second. The 30 m pipe has a diameter of 100 mm and the 12 m pipe has a diameter of 120 mm. The minor losses for the entrance, elbows and globe valves are 0.5, 0.9 and 10, respectively. If the friction factor f = 0.0225, compute the following:

a) The equivalent length of the pipe (m),

*The equivalent length of the pipe is the length of the pipe considering the total head losses.

b) The head difference, H (m),

c) The pressure difference between entrance and discharge end (kPa).
