2. A 6 in. pipe, as shown in the figure, takes water from a reservoir and terminates in a nozzle having a jet diameter of 2 in. Assuming a nozzle loss of 8 percent of the velocity head in the jet, compute the discharge (in SI units). Also, make a table showing the elevation head, velocity head, pressure head, and total head at each of the six stations. Lastly, draw the hydraulic gradient line (H.G.L.) & the energy gradient line (E.G.L.). Head losses in pipe: 1 to 2: 3.00 m 2 to 3: 9.00 m 3 to 4: 4 to 5: 18.00 m 6.00 m 1 W.S.
