Question 1

What occurs when fluid enters the entrance region of a pipe?

  • Pressure increases
  • Pressure drops
  • Flow stabilizes

💡 Hint: Consider the behavior of fluid dynamics as it enters the pipe.

Question 2

True or False: Poiseuille's Law is only applicable for turbulent flow.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Recall the suitable flow conditions for Poiseuille's Law.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A cylindrical pipe with a diameter of 0.5 m and length 5 m carries water at a temperature of 20°C. Calculate the flow rate using Poiseuille's law given that the pressure drop is 500 Pa.

💡 Hint: Ensure you convert all units properly and consider the viscosity of water at the specified temperature.

Question 2

If a pipe is too short to achieve fully developed flow, how might this influence design considerations for a water distribution system?

💡 Hint: Think about methods to mitigate pressure loss and maintain a smooth flow.
