Assignmnent 2 Example

This document discusses flow through pipes and calculations related to pipe flow. It contains the following information: 1) Calculations to determine flow velocity, pressure, head loss, and power for flow through two pipes of different diameters. 2) A sketch showing the hydraulic grade line (HGL) and energy grade line (EGL) for the pipe system. 3) Conversions between monetary units (Ringgit Malaysia) and units of length (meters, centimeters) to estimate the cost of replacing 100 meters of old cast iron pipe with new plastic pipe.
