(c) The total energy line in each pipe is linearly decreased due to the frictional head loss. At the joint
of two pipes, there is a sharp drop of the total energy due to local head loss.
In each pipe, the HGL is parallel to the TEL as velocity is unchanged. There is a sharp increase of HG
at the joint due to pressure increase after the expansion.
