Water flows initially from tank A to B through a single pipeline which is 150 mm in diameter and 150 m in length, shown in the figure below. Further development requires that the flow rate is to be increased by 30 % by installing a second pipe in parallel, indicated by the dotted line and 82 m in length, running from A to C. The coefficient of friction for each pipe is 0,015. Determine the diameter of this new pipe.

Assumptions of a discharge and a friction head loss through the series of pipe and the parallel of pipe are different. For pipes in series, the total discharge equals to the individual discharge in each pipe. For pipes in parallel, the total friction head loss equals to the individual friction head loss in each pipe. True or false

Water must flow over a distance of 2 800 m from a large catchment dam to a turbine. I The water level in the catchment dam is 1 620 m above sea level and the turbine is situated 1 275 m above sea level. The efficiency of transmission is 65% and 300 kW must be transmitted from the pipeline to the turbine. If f = 0.007, determine the number of 200 mm diameter pipelines, which must be laid in parallel, needed to transmit the required power.
