A horizontal pipe has an abrupt expansion from D1 = 8 cm to D2 = 16 cm. The water velocity in the smaller section is 12 m/s and the flow is turbulent. The pressure in the smaller section is P1 = 330 kPa. Taking the kinetic energy correction factor to be 1.07 at both the inlet and the outlet, determine the downstream pressure P2.
