    QUESTION 1

    Figure Q1 shows the plan view of a group of horizontal pipes made of cast iron (k = 0.25 mm)
    which connected in series. Determine the total head loss between end A and B if the pipe
    diameters are 300 mm and 250 mm which conveying water at a rate of 0.0065 m 3/s.
    (Take density, ρ = 1000 kg/m 3 and viscosity, μ = 1.14 X 10-3 Ns/m 2) (CO1-PO1)(C3)

    b) Figure Q2(b) below shows a simple pipe network consisting of three loops with the
    initial assumed flow rate, Q. Carry out a pipe network analysis using the Head Balance
    Method up to first iteration only. Assume that all the pipes have a friction factor,
    f=0.0013. Draw a clear diagram indicating your final solution of the correct discharge in
    each pipe. (CO1-PO1)(C3)

    cater a flowrate of 15 m 3/s is to be constructed. If the trapezoidal channel is replace with a
    rectangular open channel of 3.0 m wide with the same flowrate. Take the channel slope as
    0.004 and the Manning’s roughness coefficient as 0.01. (CO2-PO2)(C6)
