Problem

Water at 20°C flows through an inclined 8-cm-diameter pipe. At sections AA and BB the following data are taken: pA=186p_A = 186 kPa, VA=3.2V_A = 3.2 m/s, zA=24.5z_A = 24.5 m, and pB=260p_B = 260 kPa, VB=3.2V_B = 3.2 m/s, zB=9.1z_B = 9.1 m. Which way is the flow going? What is the head loss in meters?
