Question 1
A 10-inch diameter pipe undergoes a sudden enlargement to 20 inches. If the inlet velocity is 5 ft/s, calculate K_L and the expected head loss if the flow is 10 ft long.
💡 Hint: Ensure you apply the area ratios accurately for K_L.
Question 2
Given a system of pipes with abrupt fittings leading to energy loss, derive a formula combining total head losses (both major and minor).
💡 Hint: Consider how each component adds to the sum of losses.
