Water is flowing through a
100mm diameter circular pipe in
1:100 slope. Considering the half
flow of water in the pipe,
determine the velocity and rate of
flow in the pipe at n = 0.013.

Water flows from a tank through 160 fee
t of 4 inches diameter pipe and then disc
harges into air as shown. The flow of wat
er in the pipe is 12 cfs. Assume n = 0.013
and neglect minor losses. Determine the
following:
a) The velocity of flow in the pipe in fps,
b) The total head lost in the pipe in feet,
c) The pressure at the top of the tank in
psi.

Three pipes of different lengths and diameters connected in
series as shown discharges 160 liters per second. If the
roughness coefficient n = 0.012 and disregarding minor losses,
determine:
a) The head loss in each pipe, and
b) The diameter of an equivalent single pipe that could replace
all the three pipes.

Oil with sp.gr. 0.95 flows at 200 lit/sec through a 500 m of 200
mm diameter pipe (f = 0.0225). Determine the following:
(a) Head Loss
(b) The Pressure Drop if the pipe slopes down at 10° in the
direction of flow.

Water flows through commercial steel annulus 50 m long as
shown in the figure. Neglecting minor losses, estimate the
reservoir level h needed to maintain a flow of 10L/s.
Assume f = 0.0232.
