Question 1

What primarily causes major losses in a pipe system?

  • Friction
  • Valves
  • Bends

💡 Hint: Think of what slows down the fluid flow in the system.

Question 2

True or False: A Reynolds number below 2300 indicates turbulent flow.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Recall the flow classification based on Reynolds number.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A water supply system has 500 meters of a smooth pipe with a diameter of 0.2 m and a flow rate of 0.1 m³/s. Calculate the Reynolds number, and categorize the flow.

💡 Hint: Gather necessary properties of water to solve it.

Question 2

If the pressure at point A in a pipe is 200 kPa and at point B downstream is 150 kPa, calculate the energy loss due to friction assuming no other losses.

💡 Hint: Apply fluid's hydrostatics to derive losses.
