Two reservoirs are connected by a pipeline consisting of pipe 1, pipe 2, and pipe 3, with the length of 170 m, 300 m, and 210 m respectively, are connected in series. The difference in water surface levels in the two reservoirs is 12 m. The friction coefficient for pipe 1, pipe 2, and pipe 3 are 0.0052, 0.005, and 0.0048 respectively. Based on Table 2 and the given setting, determine the flowrate if: (i) minor losses are considered (the entrance loss coefficient is 0.25); and (ii) minor losses are neglected.
