Question 1
What does the velocity defect refer to?
- Average velocity of flow
- Deviation from average velocity
- Velocity increase under pressure
💡 Hint: Consider the effect of turbulence on flow speeds.
Question 2
True or False: Minor losses are primarily due to friction.
- True
- False
💡 Hint: Think about what contributes to minor losses.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
You have a horizontal pipe with a diameter of 0.5m and a length of 100m. If the head loss is found to be 5m, what is the average velocity of the water flowing through the pipe?
💡 Hint: Use the relationship between velocity, head loss, and pipe dimensions.
Question 2
In a parallel pipe system where one pipe has a diameter twice that of the other, how does the flow rate compare if the head loss is equal in both pipes?
💡 Hint: Think back to the principle of conservation of mass and balance equations.
