Question
b) Figure Q2 (b) shows the water piping system from reservoir A to reservoir B. The water
level for the reservoir A is 18 m higher than reservoir B. It is given the friction factor of
the each pipe section in the system is 0.003. Neglect the minor losses. Determine,
i.
The flow rate Q in the piping system before installation of the second pipe.
ii.
The flow rate in each section of the pipe after installation of the second pipe. If the
flow rate in the pipe section 1 is to be increased by 5% of the flow rate obtained in
Question 2(b)(i) and the velocity of the pipe section 2 is to be decreased 40% from
the velocity obtained in Question 2(b)(i).
The diameter of the new additional pipe (in section 3) with given the friction factor
of the each pipe section in the system is remain 0.003 and neglect the minor losses.
