Question 1

What is the formula used to calculate the head loss in pipes?

  • hf = f(L/D)(V²/2g)
  • hf = P/(ρg)
  • hf = V²/(2g)

💡 Hint: Think friction and pipe characteristics.

Question 2

True or False: Minor losses are not significant when calculating total head loss.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider all factors affecting flow.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A pump needs to lift water 30m against a static head. With a flow rate of 0.05 m³/s and total losses of 5.5m, estimate the power required.

💡 Hint: Break the calculations down for clarity.

Question 2

Given a pipe of diameter 10cm, find the velocity if it's discharging 0.01 m³/s. Then calculate the major loss across 100m of this pipe with a friction factor of 0.02.

💡 Hint: Calculate area and velocity first, then apply equations accordingly.
