In the figure shown, there are 38 meters of 5-cm diameter pipe, 23 meters of 15-cm diameter pipe, and 46 meters of 8-cm diameter pipe, all cast iron. The flow rate is 4.53 L/s of water and the technical details of the pipe are shown below. For cast iron, ε = 0.26 mm Sharp 5-cm entrance: K = 0.5 5-cm bend: K = 0.95 5-cm sudden expansion: K = 0.79 8-cm open globe valve: K = 6.3 a) Determine the total friction losses in the pipes in series. b) Calculate the total minor losses. c) Compute the mechanical power extracted by the turbine.
