Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A 100m long pipe with a roughness of 0.02mm carries water. After refurbishment, its roughness is reduced to 0.005mm. Calculate the change in head loss if the flow rate is constant.

💡 Hint: Consider both friction factors based on the new roughness.

Question 2

For a 2m diameter pipe, if the flow is turbulent with Re around 100,000, how would adjusting the diameter affect the pressure drop?

💡 Hint: Reflect on the relationship between D, V, and Re.
