QUESTION 3 (25 Marks) Water flows from one reservoir

to another reservoir

through a pipe of variable diameter as shown in the figure below. Pipe AC is

long and

in diameter while pipe

is

long and

in a diameter. Darcy's friction

for both pipes equals 0.006 . The gradual expansion at

is at an angle of

. The pipe entrance at

and exit are sharp. Considering all losses, 3.1 Determine the flow rate from reservoir

to

at the instant when the difference in elevation is

.(20) 3.2 Plot the total energy line and the hydraulic grade line for the pipeline ACB at the ṣame instance, indicating values/levels at all salient points. (10)
