Water flows vertically downwards through a 150 mm diameter pipe at a velocity of 2.4 m/s. The pipe suddenly enlarges to 300 mm diameter. Determine the following: a) Head loss (4 marks) b) Head loss if the flow is reversed at 2.4 m/s in the large pipe (4 marks) Assume the fitting possesses K=1 for enlargement and K=0.61 for contraction. 150 mm 300 mm Figure 2
