Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have a pipeline supplying water for a residential area. It has both straight sections and bends. Propose a design that minimizes energy losses with given dimensions and demands.

💡 Hint: Think about the hydrodynamics of fluid flow.

Question 2

Given a Reynolds number of 5000 and a relative roughness of 0.02, calculate the friction factor using the Moody chart.

💡 Hint: Use the chart effectively; identify the appropriate curve for your values.
