C2. A conical tube is fixed vertically with its smaller end upwards and it forms a part of the pipeline. The diameter at the smaller end is 245 mm and at the larger end is 467 mm. The length of the conical tube is 1.8 m and the flow rate of the oil is 128 liters/s. The pressure at the smaller end is equivalent to a head of 9.7 m of oil. Considering the following two cases: (1) Neglecting friction, (without head loss) determine (i) the velocity at the smaller end in m/s, (ii) the velocity at the larger end in m/s, and (iii) the pressure at the larger end of the tube. (2) If a head loss (with head loss) in the tube is hL= 0.0153(V1-V2)2, where V1 is the velocity at the smaller end and V2 is the velocity at the larger end, determine (iv) the head loss in m of oil and (v) the pressure at the larger end of the tube.
