Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a pipe with a diameter of 0.1m and a length of 50m with a roughness of 0.0001m, a fluid flows with a velocity of 2m/s. Calculate the Reynolds number and find the friction factor using the Moody chart.

💡 Hint: Use the proper coefficient values for water.

Question 2

A system has two different pipe sections with different roughness. Calculate the total head loss between them using the Darcy-Weisbach equation after finding corresponding friction factors.

💡 Hint: Don't forget to consider each segment's length and diameter in calculations.
