Question
A fluid of constant density flows at the rate of 15 litres/sec along a pipe AB of
100 mm diameter. This pipe branches at b into two pipes BC and BD each of
25 mm diameter and a third pipe BE of 50 mm diameter. The flow rates are such
that the flow through BC is three times the flow rate through BE and the velocity
through BD is 4 m/s. Determine:
the velocity in pipes AB, BC and BE
