Consider coolant in a circular pipe to be in laminar flow; the following formula gives one-dimensional velocity:
V=Vmax*(1-((r/R)^2))
Vmax = 2 m/s
R = Radius of Pipe = 0.05 m
Fluid Density (uniform) = 300 kg/m^3

2. What is the coolant average velocity in the pipe (m/s)?
3. What is the true kinetic head of flow expression?
A circular pipe 2 m long carries water and tapers uniformly from diameter 0.1 m at point A to 0.2 m at point B and slopes upwards at 30◦. Neglecting viscous effects, determine the volume flow rate through the pipe and the pressure at point C halfway between A and B, given that the static pressures at A and B are 2.0 and 2.4 bar respectively.
