Consider a network with three connected pipes, where Pipe A has 50 liters, Pipe B has 30 liters, and Pipe C has 20 liters. The incoming flow is the total of these. Can we maintain continuity? Calculate if necessary.
💡 Hint: Add the inflows to check for balance.
If a pipe network's total head loss is 5 meters and the total flow in the system is 200 liters/s, what is your HL/Q ratio and what does it imply?
💡 Hint: This is a ratio calculated focusing on head loss impact.
