In a mine between upcast shaft and downcast shaft, two airways are connected in parallel and their resistances are 100 and 120 Ns-2m-8 respectively. The resistance of upcast shaft, downcast shaft and the fan drifts are 10, 20, and 5 Ns-2m-8 respectively. The fan drift air pressure is 15 MN/m2. The rate of airflow through the mine in m3

Air at a density of 1.2 kg/m3 flows in a straight duct such that the velocity at the centre is 12.5 m/s. the method factor for the velocity profile is known to be 0.80. The air flow encounters a symmetric expansion such that the cross- sectional are of the duct becomes double. The static pressure value at the inlet and outlet of the expansion are 60 Pa and 90 Pa respectively. Neglecting friction the shock pressure loss on account of expansion in Pa is
