1. A farmer builds a water storage tank 12m above ground.
The water is fed via a 200m long, 125mm diameter pipe to a field for irrigation purposes. The pipe has a friction factor of 0.008. Using the K data below, show that the water flow rate (kg/s) in the pipe is approximately 26kg/s.
Data
K factors: Tank exit 0.5, Bend 0.9, valve 1.0 Water density: 1000kg/m3
