Question

The three reservoirs, A, B and C are connected by pipelines A, B and C respectively which meets at the junction X. The elevation of reservoir A is equal to 300 m while that of B is 285 m. The discharge flowing out of reservoir A is 1.4 cu.m/sec.
(Pipes, Diameter, Length, Friction factor "f")
A, 800 mm, 1500 m, 0.0157
B, 600 mm, 450 m, 0.0162
C, 450 mm, 1200 m, 0.0177

(a) Compute the rate of flow in reservoir B in cu.m/sec. 

(b) Compute the rate of flow in reservoir C in cu.m/sec. 

(c) Compute the elevation of Reservoir C in meters.
