Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A pipe of length 2000 m with a diameter of 0.1 m carries water. Calculate the major head losses if the friction factor is 0.02. Assume water's velocity is 2 m/s.
💡 Hint: Break it down into steps when using the Darcy-Weisbach equation.
Question 2
Design a system of pipes that minimizes both major and minor losses while still delivering the required flow rate to a reservoir 50 meters above a lower reservoir. Explain your design considerations.
💡 Hint: Think about the geometry of your pipe layout carefully.
