Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Design a pipe system to carry oil with a given viscosity through a 500 m length while keeping head loss below 5%. Calculate the necessary diameter, given the effective roughness height.
💡 Hint: Consider conservation of energy principles.
A 200 mm diameter pipe carries water at 3 m/s. Determine the head loss if the effective roughness is 0.1 mm over a 200 m length.
💡 Hint: Don't forget the units while calculating!
