Question 1 A pipeline of length 2000 m and diameter 200 mm connects two water supply reservoirs together. (a) If the value of the frictional factor, f, for the pipeline is 0.02 then determine the flow in the pipeline when the head difference between the two reservoirs is 20 m. (b) If an increase in demand requires that the flow be increased by 40% then determine what length of the same diameter pipe is required to satisfy this demand if it is connected as shown in Figure 1. Assume that the friction factor for the new pipe is the same as the existing one. New pipeline 20 m

Question 1
A pipeline of length 2000 m and diameter 200 mm connects two water supply reservoirs
together.
(a) If the value of the frictional factor, f, for the pipeline is 0.02 then determine the flow
in the pipeline when the head difference between the two reservoirs is 20 m.
(b) If an increase in demand requires that the flow be increased by 40% then determine
what length of the same diameter pipe is required to satisfy this demand if it is
connected as shown in Figure 1. Assume that the friction factor for the new pipe is
the same as the existing one.
