Question

An incompressible fluid is flowing at a steady rate in a
horizontal pipe. From a section, the pipe divides into two
horizontal parallel pipes of diameters di and d2 (where d₁
= 4d₂) that run for a distance of L each and then again
join back to a pipe of the original size. For both the
parallel pipes, assume the head loss due to friction only
and the Darcy-Weisbach friction factor to be the same.
The velocity ratio between the bigger and the smaller
branched pipes is

What is pipe roughness? A pump is located 5 m above the surface = 8170 M/m¹) in a closed tank. The pressure in the space above liquid surface is 35 Kpa. The suction line to the pump is 15 m of 15 cm diameter pipe (/= 0.025). The discharge from the pump is 60 m of 20 cm diameter pipe (/= 0.03). The pipe discharges in a submerged fashion to an open tank whose free liquid surface is 3 m lower than the liquid surface in the pressure tank. If pump puts 1.5 kW Into the liquid, determine the flow rate and the pressure in the pipe on the suction side of the pump. Assume turbulent flow.

(Bernoulli/continuity) Water flows steadily through the pipe shows in the figure below such that the pressures at sections (1) and (2) are 346 kPa and 107 kPa, respectively. Determine the diameter of the pipe at section (2), D2, if the velocity at section 1 is 21 m/s and viscous effects are negligible
i) Which of the following statements about a straight horizontal pipe of 6 inch diameter pressurized pipe carrying water is incorrect? i) The EGL and HGL are parallel to each other. ii) The friction head is equal to the loss in pressure head. iii) The velocity head gradually decreases from the beginning to end of the pipe. iv) The EGL (or) TEL is above the HGL. Answer: ii) Water flows from a 0.75 m pipe into a 1 m pipe. If losses are neglected then the 1 m diameter pipe will most likely (i) Have higher velocity than 0.75 m pipe (ii) Be at the same pressure as the 0.75 m diameter pipe (iii) Be at a higher pressure than 0.75 m pipe (iv) Be at a lower pressure than 0.75 m pipe. Answer:
Water flows in a steel pipe (e = 0.00020 feet) at a flow Q = 12.5 cfs. The diameter of the pipe is D = 18 inches and the length of the pipe is L = 2,500 feet between section 1 and section 2. The elevation at section 1 is z = 100 feet above the datum. The elevation at section 2 is z2 = 75 feet above the datum. The temperature of the water is 70°F. The kinematic viscosity of the water is 1.06 x 10° ft/s. The pressure at section 1 is p1 = 90 psig (pounds per square inch gage). a) Determine the velocity v in feet per second (fps). b) Determine the Reynolds number Re. c) Classify the flow based on the Reynolds number Re. d) Determine the Darcy-Weisbach friction factor f. e) Determine the friction head loss hfäic in feet in the pipe between section 1 and section 2. f) Determine the pressure p2 in psiq at section 2.
