Transcribed Image Text:Two pipes A and B are connected in parallel
between two points M and N as shown in
figure. Pipe A is 80 mm diameter, 900 m long
and its friction factor is 0.015. Pipe B is of 100
mm diameter, 700 m long and its friction factor
is 0.018. A total discharge of 0.030 m³/s is
entering the parallel pipes through the division
at M. Calculate the discharge in the two pipes
A and B.
M
= 0.015
A fA
80 mm dia, 900 m
100 mm dia, 700 m
