All concepts →Water flows through two different pipes A and B of the same circular cross-section but at different flow rates. The length of pipe A is 1.0 m and that of pipe B is 2.0 m. The flow...
The head loss for a laminar incompressible flow through a horizontal circular pipe is $${h_1}$$. Pipe length and fluid remaining the same, if the average flow velocity doubles and...
Three parallel pipes connected at the two ends have flow-rates $$\,\,\,{Q_1},\,\,\,{Q_2},\,\,\,\,$$ and $${Q_3}$$ respectively, and the corresponding frictional head losses are $${...
Consider fully developed flow in a circular pipe with negligible entrance length effects. Assuming the mass flow rate, density and friction factor to be constant, if the length of...
A smooth pipe of diameter $$200$$ $$mm$$ carries water. The pressure in the pipe at section $${S_1}\,\,$$ (elevation : $$10$$ $$m$$ ) is the $$50$$ $$kPa.$$ At section $${S_2}\,\,$...
Water at $${25^0}C$$ is flowing through a $$1.0km$$ long $$G.I.$$ pipe of $$200mm$$ diameter at the rate of $$0.07$$ $${m^3}/s.$$ If value of Darcy friction factor for this pipe is...
Oil flows through a $$200mm$$ diameter horizontal cast iron pipe (friction factor, $$f=0.0225$$) of length $$500m.$$ The volumetric flow rate is $$0.2{m^3}/s.$$ The head loss (in $...
In fully developed laminar flow in the circular pipe, the head loss due to friction is directly proportional to ....... (Mean velocity/square of the mean velocity)
A $$400m$$ long horizontal pipe is to deliver $$900$$ kg of oil $$\left( {S = 0.9,\,\,\upsilon = 0.0002{m^2}/s} \right)$$ per minute. If the head loss is not to exceed $$8$$ $$m$$...
