25 m long and f= 0.018. The junctions with the reservoirs and between the pipes
are abrupt. Find (i) Discharge including all losses (ii) Discharge neglecting

8. Pipeline carrying water has a diameter of 0.5 m and is 2 km long. To increase the delivery another pipeline of same diameter is introduced parallel to the first pipe in the second half of its length. Find the increase in discharge if the total head loss in both the cases is 15 m. Assume f= 0.02 for all the pipes. [0.3766m3/s; 0.4763m3/s; 26.48%]
9. A compound piping system consists of 1800 m of 50 cm, 1200 m of 40 cm and 600 m of 30 cm diameter pipes of the same material connected in series. (i) What is the equivalent length of a 40 cm pipe of the same material? (ii) What is the equivalent size of the pipe 3600 m long? (iii) If the three pipes are in parallel, what is the equivalent length of a 50 cm pipe? [4318.22 m; 38.57 cm; 377.34 m]
10. A
horizontal pipe 40 m long is connected to water tank at one end and discharge

the tank, the pipe is 150 mm diameter and it’s suddenly enlarged to 300 mm. The
height of the water level in the tank is 8 m above the centre of the pipe.
