a.Determine the flowrate between the tanks in order to achieve steady flow condition.

Water is to be pumped from one large, open tank to a second large, open tank as shown inFigure 1. The pipe diameter throughout is 15 em and the total length of the pipe between thepipe entrance and exit is 60 m. Minor loss coefficients for the entrance, exit, and the elbow areshown, and the friction factor for the pipe can be assumed constant and equal to 0.02.(2)WaterK - 1.5Ki =10-3 mPumpDiameter of pipe = 15 cmTotal pipe length = 60 m(1)
