Question
Two sharp-ended pipes of diameter d₁ = 50 mm, and d₂ = 100 mm, each of length
100 m, are connected in parallel between two reservoirs which have a difference of
level h= 10 m, as shown in figure below. If the friction coefficient, f= 0.032 for
each pipe, calculate:
a. the rate of flow for each pipe,
b. the diameter d of a single pipe 100 m long which would give the same flow if
it was substituted for the original two pipes,
(Notes: Use Darcy Weisbach's equation, h,= (flv²)/(2dg)
