Question

Q3. Two identical pumps are used in parallel to move water through a commercial steel pipeline from reservoir A to reservoir B, where EA = 772 ft and EB =

878 ft. The 2.0 ft pipe connecting the two reservoirs has a length of 4860 ft. The pump characteristics are provided in the Table 2. Determine the discharge in the pipeline, the velocity of flow, and the pump head. \text { Use } f=\frac{0.25}{\left[\log \left(\frac{e / D}{37}+\frac{6.71}{R_{1}^{0.9}}\right)\right]^{2}}
