Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a flow with a diameter of 0.5 meters, calculate the average velocity if the flow rate is 0.25 m³/s. Then, determine the head loss using the Darcy-Weisbach equation with an f value of 0.02.

💡 Hint: You’ll need to recall how to find the area of a circle and apply the velocity to the head loss formula.

Question 2

Imagine a tank system with one outlet pipe experiencing a 5 m head loss. If the diameter of the pipe changes along its length, calculate the flow rate using continuity and energy equations.

💡 Hint: Integrating continuity with energy principles is key for this problem.
