Question 1
You have a pipe system with a total length of 200 m, flow diameter of 0.1 m, and the fluid velocity is 3 m/s. Calculate the major and minor head losses if K is 0.15 for the fittings.
💡 Hint: Be sure to substitute all values carefully.
Question 2
In a hydraulic system, if the total head loss is found to be 15 m, and the major loss is 10 m, what is the total minor loss?
💡 Hint: This is a simple subtraction problem.
