The water pipe system shown in the figure is made of galvanized iron pipe. Local losses can be neglected. The entrance to the piping system is at 400 kPa (gauge) and all outlets are at atmospheric pressure. We want to find the flow rates ? 1, ?2, ? 3, and ?4. Obtain a nonlinear system with 5 equations and 5 unknowns that need to be solved numerically to find the flow rate. Do not solve the system of equations.

Applied Fluid Mechanics

A fluid is a substance that is continuously deformed by the application of shear stress. The rate of deformation of a fluid depends on its viscosity. The fluid tries to flow when it interacts with some other system.
