Example 14.2: Pipes in series By applying Bernoulli’s equation at A and B of the surface of two reservoirs
Since pA = pB = patm = 0 and, if the reservoirs are large, VA and VB will be negligible,
ZA – ZB = Losses = entry loss + friction loss in pipe AC + sudden enlargement + friction loss in pipe BC + exit loss
By applying Continuity equation,Q = A1v1 = A2v2 = (/4)d1

Example 14.3: Pipes in parallel
• Putting ZA – ZB = h = 10 m, f = 0.008, l = 100 m, V = 0.02852/D2,
10 = (1.5D + 3.2)(0.02852)2/2gD5
241 212D5 – 1.5D – 3.2 = 0 (or) f(D) = 0
This equation can be solved graphically or by successive approximations.
An approximate answer can be obtained by omitting the second term; then,241 212D5 = 3.2 and D = 0.1058 m
• If D = 0.1058 m, then f(D) = 3.198 – 0.159 – 3.2 = -0.161• If D = 0.107 m, then f(D) = 3.383 – 0.161 – 3.2 = +0.022• This result is sufficiently accurate for practical purposes. Diameter of equivalent single pipe = 0.107 m = 107 mm.

Example 14.4: Pipes in branching
For continuity of flow at D,Flow through AD = Flow through DB + Flow through DC, Q1 = Q2 + Q3
A1v1 = A2v2 + A3v3
(/4)d12v1 = (/4)d2
2v2 + (/4)d32v3,
v1 = (d2/d1)2 v2 + (d3/d1)2 v3
Substituting numerical values,v1 = (0.075/0.12)2v2 + (0.06/0.12)2v3
v1 – 0.3906v2 – 0.2500v3 = 0 (3)
Values of v1, v2, and v3 are found by solution of the simultaneous equations (1), (2) and (3). From (1), v2 = (9.81 – 1.25v1
2) (4)
From (2) v3 = (17.657 – 1.5v12) (5)
Example 14.4: Pipes in branching
Substituting in equation (3), v1 – 0.3906 (9.81 – 1.25v1
2) – 0.25 (17.657 – 1.5v12) = 0 (6)
Equation (6) can be solved graphically or by successive approximations . .
If the square roots are to be real, the value of V1 cannot exceed the lowest value that make one of the terms under the square root signs equal to zero. This will be given by (9.81 - 1.25v1
2) = 0; i.e., v12= 9.81/1.25 = 7.848, so that
v1 must be less than (7.848) = 2.80 m/s.
If v1 = 2.8 m/s, f(v1) = 2.8 – 0.0391 – 0.6071 = + 2.1538;
v1 = 1.9 m/s, f(v1) = 1.9 – 0.8990 – 0.8747 = + 0.1263;
v1 = 1.8 m/s, f(v1) = 1.8 – 0.9374 – 0.8943 = - 0.0317;
v1 = 1.82 m/s, f(v1) = 1.82 – 0.9300 – 0.8905 = -0 .0005
Example 14.4: Pipes in branching
Taking v1 = 1.82 m/s as a sufficiently accurate result,
Volume rate of flow in AD, Q1 = (/4)d1
2v1 = (/4) x 0.122 x 1.82 = 0.0206 m3/s
From eqn. (4), v2 = (9.81 – 1.25x1.822) = 2.381 m/s,
Volume rate of flow in DB, Q2 = (/4)d2
2v2 = (/4) x 0.0752 x 2.381 = 0.0105 m3/s
From eqn. (5), v3 = (17.657 – 1.5x1.822) = 3.562 m/s,
Volume rate of flow in DC, Q3 = (/4)d3
2v3 = (/4) x 0.062 x 3.562 = 0.0101 m3/s
Checking for continuity at D,Q2 + Q3 = 0.0105 + 0.0101 = 0.0206 = Q1 O.K.
