If a pipeline infrastructure tapers over 60m length from 300mm in diameter to 500 mm in diameter. The gauge pressure at the inlet is 85 KN/m2 and the gauge pressure at the outlet is 93 KN/m2. If the centreline of the pipe rises at a gradient of 1 in 80 and the energy loss due to friction is 0.01m per metre length, determine the flowrate in the pipeline and the velocity at entry and exit.

Hello, can I get help please?
A pipeline of uniformly varying cross-section carries oil of specific gravity 0.87. The diameter of the pipe is 200 mm at end A and 500 mm at end B. The end B is located at 4 m higher than A. What is the loss of head in the pipeline if the pressure reading at A is 9.81 N/cm2 and at B is 5.886 N/cm²? (Take discharge is 200 litres/s and g = 9.81 m/s²)
A horizontal water pipeline 50-cm diameter carries a discharge of 0.5 m/s at a pressure of 55 kN/m?. It then reduces to 300-mm diameter. For the 300-mm pipe, calculate the (a) velocity (m/s) and (b) pressure head (m).

A fluid of dynamic viscosity 2 x 10-5 kg/ms and density 1 kg/m³ flows with an average velocity of 1 m/s through a long duct of rectangular (25 mm x 15 mm) cross-section. Assuming laminar flow, the pressure drop (in Pa) in the fully developed region per meter length of the duct is
Along a 50-m pipeline, there is a half-open globe valve (K = 10), four 90-degree smooth bends (K = 0.45), and six 45-degree elbows (K = 0.15).

Flow takes place between three reservoirs, as shown in Figure 1. The volume flow rate out of reservoirs A and B is 0.15 m3/s and 0.25 m/s respectively. If the coefficient of friction for the three pipes is 0.008, determine the relative elevations of the free surfaces.
