Transcribed Image Text:Problem 2: Comparing Three Equations for Head Loss
Compare three equations for friction head loss in pipes, assuming constant friction factors.
Recall the slope of the energy grade line (EGL) is S = he/L.
Part A
i. Write the Darcy-Weisbach equation for friction head loss, ht=...
ii. For iron pipes, what is a typical, midrange value for the friction coefficient, λ?
iii. For constant 2, if the discharge is doubled, by what factor does the head loss increase?
Part B
i. Write the Hazen-Williams equation for friction head loss, ht=...
ii. For iron pipes, what is a typical, midrange value for the friction coefficient, CHW?
iii. For constant Chw, if the discharge is doubled, by what factor does the head loss increase?
Part C
i. Write the Manning equation for friction head loss, ht=...
ii. For iron pipes, what is a typical, midrange value for Manning's n, with units?
iii. For constant n, if the discharge is doubled, by what factor does the head loss increase?
