    water through a diffuser,BobPE

    If you write the Euler equation: v1**2/2gc+p1/gamma+z1+work of the pump = v2**2/2gc+p2/gamma+z2+work of the turbine+head losses from point 1 to 2, and the points 1 and 2 are sufficiently far apart specifically that point 2 is far enough down stream that all local momentum effects have settled...
