The pressure head drop across a short section of an 8in. pipeline (PCV) is 12ft. the pipeline section contains a globe vavle and another valve of some kind that is open but not labeled. Determine what kind of valve it is if the flow rate is 2.74 ft3/s. Assume that the friction loss is negligible in the short pipe segment.
