44.
The power transmitted through a pipe is (where w = Specific weight in N/m3, and Q = Discharge in m3/s)
w x Q x H
w x Q x hf
w x Q (H - hf)
w x Q (H + hf)

Total head --> H
Head lost due to friction --> Hf
Available head --> H-Hf
Power = Specific weight * Q* (H-Hf).
P = W * A * V * (H-Hf).
(2)

What is H? and hf? Please explain?

Pragnan said:   1 decade ago
H = Head.
Hf = Head loss due to friction.

H = pressure head.
Hf=Head loss due to friction.

Answer should be option B. Because, power = pressure * discharge. (pressure = w*hf).
