It is important for the bottom of the pit to be shaped appropriately and have a smooth surface to minimise friction losses at the pit.
It is good practice to shape the bottom of the pit as a half pipe in order to maintain invert continuity. This will enable smoother flows as the flows on the invert of the pipe are less disturbed and continue like an open invert.

Exam Problem #8 (Finding Friction Loss)
Question
A pump provides 1,500 gallons per minute of coolant through a steel 6″ diameter pipe that runs to and from the coolant reactor which is 450 feet away. The coolant reactor has an equivalent length of 115 feet of pipe. On the way to the reactor the coolant must pass through 4 90º elbows and 2 swing check valves.
If the coolant has a kinematic viscosity of 1.684e-5 ft2/s how much head must…
