(b) A cast iron piping system deliver water at 20°C from a close tank, T1 to an open tank, T2 as shown in Figure 4. Tank T1 is located at higher elevation compare to tank T2. The internal diameter of the pipe is 2.5 cm. The piping system has a sharp entrance, fully open globe valve, five 90° threaded bends, three 90° miter bends (without vane), and a sharp exit. The values of K are shown in Table 1. The total pipe length is 100 m. Gauge pressure inside the lower tank is 25 bar. If water is delivered at 250 L/min, determine the: i) minor head loss, ii) major head loss, and iii) elevation difference, h.

Question
(b) A cast iron piping system deliver water at 20°C from a close tank, T1 to an open tank, T2
as shown in Figure 4. Tank T1 is located at higher elevation compare to tank T2. The
internal diameter of the pipe is 2.5 cm. The piping system has a sharp entrance, fully open
globe valve, five 90° threaded bends, three 90° miter bends (without vane), and a sharp
exit. The values of K are shown in Table 1. The total pipe length is 100 m. Gauge pressure
inside the lower tank is 25 bar. If water is delivered at 250 L/min, determine the:
i)
minor head loss,
ii)
major head loss, and
iii)
elevation difference, h.
