Textbook Question
Chapter 14, Problem 14.21PP
The flow from two of the troughs described in Problem 14.20 passes into a sump, from which a round common clay drainage tile carries it to a storm sewer. Determine the size of tile required to carry the flow (500 gal/min) when running half full. The slope is 0.1 percent.

10. Three pipes of lengths 800 m, 600 m and 300 m and of diameters 400 mm, 300 mm and 200 mm respec-
tively are connected in series. The ends of the compound pipe is connected to two tanks, whose water
surface levels are maintained at a difference of 15 m. Determine the rate of flow of water through the pipes
if f = .005. What will be diameter of a single pipe of length 1700 m and f = .005, which replaces the three
pipes ?

PROBLEM:
Pipes 1, 2, and 3, having diameters of 150 mm, 200 mm, and
250 mm, and leading from reservoifs A, B, and C, respectively, join at
a common point. All pipes are new cast iron and each is 300 m long. If
the water level in reservoir C is 2 m higher than that in A and 5 m
higher than that in B, determine the discharge and direction of flow in
pipe 1. Use f = 0.02 for all pipes.
