Question 1

What is the maximum Reynolds number for laminar flow?

  • 2000
  • 2300
  • 2500

💡 Hint: Think of the threshold for flow classification.

Question 2

True or False: Major losses are greater than minor losses in all pipe flow scenarios.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: If there are many fittings, this may change.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

In a water distribution system, if the Reynolds number in a segment is measured at 1500, explain the expected characteristics of the flow and its implications for energy loss.

💡 Hint: Think about how the flow behavior affects pipe design.

Question 2

Given a pipe with considerable minor losses because of numerous bends, describe one possible solution to minimize energy dissipation within the system.

💡 Hint: Consider how altering the physical setup could change the flow characteristics.
