Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A 200m long pipe has a diameter of 0.15m and carries water at a velocity of 4m/s. It's known that the friction factor is 0.02. Calculate the major head loss.

💡 Hint: Recheck each component of the formula.

Question 2

In a pipe system, if three 90-degree bends occur, each with K-values of 0.75, compute the total head loss if the fluid velocity is 3m/s.

💡 Hint: Account for the number of bends and sum the losses.
