Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a pipe system with various lengths and diameters, analyze how adding different materials affects the overall pressure drop across the system.

💡 Hint: Consider which materials lead to greater or lesser friction losses.

Question 2

Examine a scenario where a fluid must travel through multiple pipe diameters. Calculate the pressure drop in turbulent flow and discuss how to mitigate losses.

💡 Hint: Concentrate on how transitions might influence turbulence.
