Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A pipe has a diameter of 0.1 m, a length of 50 m, and fluid flowing with a velocity of 2 m/s. Calculate the head loss due to friction using the Darcy-Weisbach equation, assuming a friction factor of 0.02.

💡 Hint: Make sure to define g and ensure unit consistency.

Question 2

Describe how to use the Moody Chart to determine the friction factor for a specific Reynolds number and relative roughness. Provide an example with values.

💡 Hint: Remember, smooth surfaces have lower roughness, affecting your readings.
