2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is a friction factor?
Think about what factors contribute to fluid movement through a pipe.
Define Reynolds number.
Relate it to how it predicts laminar vs turbulent flow.
What is the upper limit of Reynolds number for laminar flow?
Consider common thresholds for fluid flow.
Moody's Chart is used to calculate which of the following?
It deals with flow resistance in pipes.
Given a Reynolds number of 2900 for a pipe with a relative roughness of 0.02, calculate the friction factor using Moody's Charts. Explain each step.
Remember to interpolate if the exact value isn’t directly on the chart.
Design a simplified water distribution system where two connections lead into a common pipe. Calculate energy losses due to both major friction losses in the pipe and minor losses from the two connections.
Establish flow continuity and conservation of energy principles in your calculations.
