A pipeline, 50 cm diameter and 4,500 m long, connects two reservoirs whom constant difference of water level is 12 m. A branch pipe, 1,250 m long and taken from a point distant 1,500 m from reservoir A, leads to reservoir C whose water level is 15 m below that of reservoir A. Find the diameter, in centimeters, of the branch pipe, so that the flow into both the reservoirs is the same. Assume friction coefficient ƒ = 0.03 for all the pipes.

The water system in an urban area consists of an old 200 mm pipeline 750 m long which conveys water from a pump to a reservoir whose water surface elevation is 105 m higher than the pump. Water is pumped at a rate of 70li/sec. Determine the horsepower saved by replacing the old pipe with a new 25 cm pipe. Assuming f=0.033 and 0.022 for the old and new pipe respectively. Neglect other losses except frictional loss.
