Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
12 inches = 1 ft.
6 inches = 6 inches * (1 ft./12 inches) = 0.5 ft.
Therefore the diameter of the cast iron (D) = 6 inches = 0.5 ft.
The area of cast iron (A) = πD²/4 = π(0.5)²/4 = 0.196 ft²
The velocity (V) = 6 ft./s, the acceleration due to gravity (g) = 32.2 ft./s²
ε/D = 0.0004 ft./ 0.5 ft. = 0.0008
Using the moody chart, find the line ε/D = 0.0008 and determine the point of intersection with the vertical line R = 2.7 * 10⁵. Hence we get f = 0.02.
The head loss (h) is:
The pressure drop (Δp) is:
Δp = ρg =
