Use the Hazen-Williams equation and the Manning equation to calculate the flow rate for Problem, which was solved using the Darcy-Weisbach equation and yielded Q = 78.8 m3/sec. Compare the results and discuss the differences. Assume minor losses are negligible and verify your results with computer software.

Problem

Two sections, A and B, are 4.5 km apart along a 4-m-diameter riveted-steel pipe in its best condition. A is 100 m higher than B. If the water temperature is 20°C and the pressure heads measured at A and B are 8.3 m and 76.7 m, respectively, what is the flow rate? Assume minor losses are negligible.
