4Question 4.
True or False: The continuity equation ensures that inflow and outflow in a fluid network are equal.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about mass conservation.
Question 5.
Design a complex 4-node pipe network and use the Hardy Cross Method to find unknown flow rates while ensuring the continuity equation is satisfied.
Show hintHide hint
Draw the network properly and label all known variables before starting.
Question 6.
Present a scenario where minor losses in pipes cannot be neglected and calculate how they would affect the head loss in the network.
Show hintHide hint
Use the complete Darcy-Weisbach equation integrating minor loss coefficients.
