First you need to know what is the maximum power transmitted through pipe and then equate it to the Bernoulli equation.

Please show the detailed derivation.

Vishal said:   10 years ago
How it is calculated?

@Vishal, I also have same doubt.

Nozzle head = total head- loss of friction head.
For maximum efficiency, Total head H = 3 hf,
V2/2g = 2(4flv2/2gd),
V = Q/area and solving we get answer.

It will be 2fl in place of 8fl.

Explain it properly (stepwise).

Solve using dimensional method.

=> f is unit less.
=> D^5/l has dimension L^4.
