1. Determine the appropriate size of pipe diameter in millimeters for pipe S-A.
2. Determine the appropriate size of pipe diameter in millimeters for pipe A-B.
3. Determine the appropriate size of pipe diameter in millimeters for pipe B-C.
After 25 years, the roughness coefficient of all constructed pipelines decreased by 25 grades
and a new community shall connected to community C using the original pipeline form S.
4. Determine the size of additional parallel pipeline (three pipes from S-A-B-C) to
accommodate additional water load and original design pressure heads at A, B, and C
are all maintained.
5. Determine the additional pump head towards D from C in meters.
6. Determine the corresponding pump power requirement in kilowatts.
