Considering all the losses, show that head discharge relationship can be expressed by
where
H is the water height in the Reservoir 1 above the centreline of the Pipe A, Z1 and Z2 are the reference heights from the datum to the centreline of the Pipe A and B (Figure 1), CAB is the discharge coefficient, xAB is the composite losses and VB is velocity in Pipe B.
