An illegal connection was observed on a 300 mm diameter horizontal pipe. Upstream from the connection two gages 600 m apart showed a pres- sure difference of 140 kPa. Downstream from the connection two gages 600 m apart showed a pressure difference of 116 kPa. How much oil (sp.gr.=0.8450) is being stolen due to the illegal connection? Assume loss of head ranging from 40% - 50 % of velocity head for every 50 m.
