    This document contains a final examination on fluid mechanics with 6 multi-part problems testing knowledge of pipe flow, head loss, flow rates, and hydraulic networks. Students are asked to show detailed work and submit solutions in PDF format. The problems cover topics like head loss calculations using Darcy-Weisbach and Hazen-Williams formulas, parallel and series flow, and using reservoir elevations and pressures to solve hydraulic network problems.

    FINAL EXAMINATION- FLUID MECHANICS

    Direction: Answer the following problem in a short size bond paper with your
    FULL NAME written above. Show your detailed solutions and highlight
    your final answer. NOTE: Submit your output into one PDF file format.
    GOODLUCK!
    1.) What is the expected head loss per mile of a closed circular pipe with 17
    in. inside diameter, friction factor of 0.03 when 3300 gal/min of water flow
    under pressure? (10 points)

    2.) Two reservoirs having a difference in elevation of 82 ft. is connected by


    a 3-inch diameter pipe, 2500 ft. long with a roughness coefficient n=0.012.
    After 10 years, the roughness coefficient n=0.0265. Find the percent change
    in discharge. (15 points)

    3.) A pipe network consists of pipeline 1 from A to B it is connected to


    pipelines 2 and 2, where it merges again at joint C to form a single pipeline
    4 up to point D. Pipelines 1, 2 and 4 are in series connection whereas
    pipelines 2 and 3 are parallel to each other. If the rate of flow from A to B is
    10 liters/sec. and assuming f = 0.02 for all pipes, compute the following:
    a) Rate of flow of pipeline 3 in L/s. (5 points)
    b) Rate of flow of pipeline 2 in L/s. (5 points)
    c) Total head loss from A to D in m. (5 points)

    4.) The design of a city water supply system is shown in the figure. Reservoir
    A needs to supply 0.0938 m3/s to lower reservoir B and C. Pipe 1 is 300 m
    diameter and 900 m long, pipe 2 is 200 mm diameter and 387 m long, and
    pipe 3 is 200 mm diameter and 700 m long. The roughness coefficient for all
    pipes is 0.011. Determine the following:
    a) Flow rate of Pipe 2 in m3/s. (10 points)
    b) Flow rate of Pipe 3 in m3/s. (10 points)
    c) Elevation (m) of water surface in reservoir A to supply the needed
    flow rate. (10 points)

    5.) Water with a discharge of 750 liters/sec flows through a pipe having a
    diameter of 400 mm and length of 65 m. Compute the head loss of the
    pipeline using:
    a) Darcy-Weisbach Formula with f=0.012 (5 points)
    b) Hazen-William’s Formula with C=100 (5 points)

    6.) Pipes from three reservoirs meet at point C which is at elevation 366 m.
    Assume all pipes are PVC, with Hazen Williams C = 150. Pressure at point
    C is 18.3 psi. Find the head loss of pipeline x. (20 points)
    Pipeline Diameter (in) Length (ft)
