A certain part of stainless-steelpiping of a water distribution system involves a parallel section.Both parallel pipes have a diameter of 30 cm. One of the branches (pipe A) is 1500 m long while the other branch (pipe B) is 2500 m long. If the flow rate through pipe A is 0.4 and 0.31 m3/s, respectively. Pipe A has a half-way-closed gate valve (KL= 3)while pipe B has a fully open globe valve (KL= 9), and the other minor losses are negligible. Determine the mechanical power of pump for the sy

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.
