Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A pipeline with a diameter of 0.5 m exits into a large tank. If fluid flows at 4 m/s, calculate the head loss at the exit.

💡 Hint: Remember to use gravitational acceleration in your calculations.

Question 2

You have a pipe system experiencing sudden enlargement from 0.3 m diameter to 1 m. What will be the K value, and discuss the implications on head loss.

💡 Hint: Focus on the area calculations and apply the change in diameter.
