Fluid in motion is relatable to head losses and the application of pump. The following questions

demonstrate the relevant applications.

a$)$ A pipeline network that connects two tanks is of $200-$meter pipe length with $20cm$ diameter

where it consists of $5$ units of $90$ standard elbow, $3$ units of fully open check valve and $2$

units of fully open diaphragm valves. Both pipe exit and inlet are sharp edged. From all

possible minor losses in the system, state the total minor head losses for this pipe network

in the form of $\frac{v^2}{2}g,$ where $v$ and $g$ are the fluid velocity and gravitational acceleration

respectively.
