Length and dia. Of pipe 1 are 2000m and 1m while the second pipe is
2000m and dia. Of 0.8m .Find the rate flow of each pipe if the total flow
rate in the main pipe is 0.3 m3/s. the coefficient friction of each pipe is
same and equal to 0.05.
Ans.Q1= 1.906 m3/s , Q2=1.094m3/s
Ex.
A pipe of dia.=20cm and length 2000m is connects two reservoir having
difference of water levels as 20m determine the discharge through pipe.
If an additional pipe of diameter 20cm and length 1200 m is attached to
the last 1200m length of the existing pipe, find the increase in the
discharge. f=0.015 neglect minor losses.
Ans.Q= 0.0254 m3/s , increase to discharge 0.0088m3/s
Ex.
Pipe of L=4000m and dia.=0.6m as shown in fig. At a distance of 1000m
from the upper reservoir , a small pipe is connected to the pipe line. The
water can be taken from the small pipe. Find discharge to the lower
reservoir
