Water is flowing through a circular pipe made of cast iron with a diameter of 26 cm. If Reynolds number is 105. What is the Darcy friction factor?
Consider a pipe that branches out into two parallel pipes and then rejoins at a junction downstream. The two parallel pipes have the same lengths and friction factors. The diameters of the pipes are 2 cm and 4 cm. If the head loss in one pipe is 0.5 m, the head loss in the other pipe is (a) 0.5 m (b) 1 m (c) 0.25 m (d) 2 m (e) 0.125 m
A 6-cm-diameter horizontal water pipe expands gradually to a 9-cm-diameter pipe. The walls of the expansion section are angled 10° from the axis. The average velocity and pressure of water before the expansion section are 7 m/s and 150 kPa, respectively. Determine the head loss in the expansion section and the pressure in the larger-diameter pipe.
