Question:

The total discharge from A to Bin Figure P4.4.2 is 50.0 cfs (ft 3/sec). Pipe 1 is 4,000 ft long with a diameter of 1.5 ft, and pipe 2 is 3,000 ft long with a diameter of 2 ft. Using (a) Hardy-Cross principles and (b) the method of equivalent pipes, determine the head loss between A and B and the flow rate in each pipe if concrete (average) pipes are used at 68 °F. Ignore minor losses.
