Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A water distribution network has three pipes: Pipe A has a diameter of 0.5 m, Pipe B has a diameter of 0.3 m, and Pipe C has a diameter of 0.2 m. The length of Pipe A is 500 m with a friction factor of 0.02. Calculate the head loss for each pipe assuming certain flow rates and summarize the adjustments needed.
💡 Hint: Be mindful of converting units properly!
In a network where 200 L/s is entering one node, and 100 L/s is exiting while 50 L/s is waiting in reserve, evaluate whether the system can clear the reserve without changes to inflow. Propose potential flow adjustments to achieve continuity.
💡 Hint: Think about how flow interacts at each junction.
