Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Design a water supply system using Bernoulli's equation to account for major and minor losses. Present the necessary calculations and justifications for your design.
💡 Hint: Base your design on understanding how losses impact flow and pressure.
Given a situation where the Reynolds number is 3000 in a pipe, identify if the flow is laminar, turbulent, or transitional, and calculate potential energy losses in a 50m long pipe with a specific diameter and roughness.
💡 Hint: Remember the thresholds for determining flow type and losses!
