Free Exam:
1. Define the term "major losses" in a piping system and provide an example.
2. Explain the term "minor losses" and provide an example.
3. A pipeline carries water at a flow rate of 0.05 m$^3$/s. The diameter of the
pipeline is 0.2 m and the length of the pipeline is 100 m. If the friction factor is
0.02, calculate the head loss due to major losses.
4. A pipeline carries water at a flow rate of 0.05 m$^3$/s. The diameter of the
pipeline is 0.2 m and the length of the pipeline is 100 m. The pipeline has four
90-degree bends, each with a radius of 0.5 m. If the friction factor is 0.02,
calculate the head loss due to minor losses.
5. Calculate the total head loss in the pipeline given in question 3 if the head loss
due to minor losses is 5% of the head loss due to major losses.
6. Define major and minor losses in a pipe system
