Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a pipe system for a residential area with varying water demand throughout the year, calculating required pipe sections and accounting for major and minor losses.

💡 Hint: Consider how flow requirements might change with seasonal water use.

Question 2

Analyze an experimental dataset measuring pressure drops across different fittings in a laboratory setup. Discuss how the data can inform pipe system design.

💡 Hint: Think about the implications of these findings on system efficiency.
