Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Design a system using a Moody chart that limits head loss to a specific value. Consider different pipe configurations and sizes, determining appropriate roughness.
💡 Hint: Consider the flow rates and corresponding velocities to guide your design.
Evaluate the impact of increasing pipe roughness on the efficiency of a water delivery system. What design changes would you recommend?
💡 Hint: Think about how changes in one parameter affect the overall system performance.
