Question:

Water flows at a rate of 0.035 m3/s in a horizontal pipe whose diameter is reduced from 15 cm to 8 cm by a reducer. If the pressure at the centerline is measured to be 480 kPa and 445 kPa before and after the reducer, respectively, determine the irreversible head loss in the reducer. Take the kinetic energy correction factors to be 1.05.
