Two tanks A and B are connected by a pipe 30 m long. The first 21 m has a diameter of 75 mm and then is suddenly reduced to 50 mm for the next 9 m. The difference of levels between the tank water levels is 2.40 m. Pipe coefficient f=0.005 and the contraction coefficient at sudden change in area is 0.58. Find all the losses, in terms of velocity v2 at exit from the 50 mm2 pipe and hence find rate of flow. Draw the Hydraulic gradient line.

Question
Two tanks A and B are connected by a pipe 30 m long. The first 21 m has a diameter of 75 mm and
then is suddenly reduced to 50 mm for the next 9 m. The difference of levels between the tank water
levels is 2.40 m. Pipe coefficient f=0.005 and the contraction coefficient at sudden change in area is 0.58.
Find all the losses, in terms of velocity v2 at exit from the 50 mm2
pipe and hence find rate of flow. Draw
the Hydraulic gradient line.
