Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a turbulent flow through a circular pipe with a roughness of 0.046 mm, calculate the friction factor using Moody's Diagram when the Reynolds number is 100,000.

💡 Hint: Make sure to find the right curve that matches both the Reynolds number and relative roughness.

Question 2

Design a water distribution system with two valves and two pipe diameters. Calculate the expected energy loss using the appropriate formulas and evaluate how different flows affect pressure.

💡 Hint: Consider how to utilize the head loss equation: h_loss = k * (v^2 / (2g)).
