Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Determine the flow rate in a parallel pipe system with known diameters and friction factors, then equate losses to find out how much water flows into each pipe.
💡 Hint: Apply the Darcy-Weisbach equation to find total head losses.
Given a three reservoir junction scenario, calculate the flow rates considering input and output discharge rates.
💡 Hint: The sum of inflows must equal outflows.
