Question 1

What does the continuity equation Q = A1V1 = A2V2 imply in fluid dynamics?

  • Flow is constant across different sections
  • Flow varies with diameter
  • Only friction matters in fluid flow

💡 Hint: Consider how fluid behaves in closed systems.

Question 2

True or False: Major losses only occur due to fittings in a pipeline.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Focus on where most friction occurs.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A system has two parallel pipes: one with 6 cm diameter and the other with 8 cm. Given their lengths and friction factors, calculate individual flow rates and overall discharge if the total discharge is known.

💡 Hint: Focus on keeping head losses balanced.

Question 2

Design a water distribution system with a series of varying diameter pipes connecting multiple reservoirs. Detail the head loss calculations and expected discharge rates at each segment.

💡 Hint: Think of the flow dynamics across different diameters.
