Water flows from tank A to tank B (Figure), and the water surface elevation difference is 60 feet. Assume the water temperature is 68°F, the pipe material is cast iron, and the pipeline has the following characteristics:
large pipe: | 1,000 ft long (D = 16 in.) |
bends: | four (R/D = 4 in large pipe) |
small pipe: | 1,000 ft long (D = 8 in.) |
expansion: | sudden |
Determine the system’s existing flow rate. What percentage increase in the flow would occur if the 8-in. line were completely replaced with the 16-in. pipeline?
