For maximum transmission, H=3h,
where H=Total Supply Head,
h=head lost due to friction,
H=3h.
=>v^2/2g=3 flV^2/(2gD),
where, v=velocity at the nozzle end,
V=velocity in pipe.
=>Q^2/(a^2.2g)=3flQ^2/(A^2/2gD).
where a=nozzle area,
A=area of pipe,
=>3fld^4=D^5.
=>d= (D^5/(3fl))^(1/4).
where H=Total Supply Head,
h=head lost due to friction,
H=3h.
=>v^2/2g=3 flV^2/(2gD),

V=velocity in pipe.
