4.4.1. The total discharge from
Ato
Bin Figure
P4.4.1is
0.936(m^(3))/(s). Pipe 1 is
100mlong with a diameter of
40cm, and pipe 2 is
100mlong with a diameter of
50cm. Determine the head loss between
Aand
B(junctions) and the flow rate in each pipe using (a) Hardy-Cross principles and (b) the method of equivalent pipes. Assume
e_(1)=2.0mmand
e_(2)=1.25mmfor the highly tuberculated pipes,
20\deg Cwater, and minor losses are negligible. Hint: A direct solution is possible using the conservation of mass and energy principles. Figure P4.4.1
