1. A liquid flows downward through at tapped vertical portion of a pipe.

At the entrance and

exit of the pipe, the static pressures are equal. If for a vertical height 'h' the velocity becomes four times, then the ratio of 'h' to the velocity head at entrance will be: (a) 3 (b) 8 (c) 15 (d) 24 . Ans. (c) Apply Bernoullis Equation

2.. Point A of head 'HA' is at a higher elevation than point B of head 'HB'. The head loss between these points is HL. The flow will take place. (a) Always form A to B (b) From A to B if HA + HL = HB (c) From B to A if HA + HL = HB (d) Form B to A if HB + HL = HA Ans. (c) Flow may take place from lower elevation to higher elevation. Everyday we are pumping water to our water tank. If flow is from point 1 to point 2 then Total head at point 1 = Total head at point 2 + loss of head between 1 and 2 If flow is from point A to point B then ,Total head at point A (HA) = Total head at point B (HB) + Loss of head between A and B (HL) If flow is from point B to point A then Total head at point B (HB) = Total head at point A (HA) + Loss of head between B and A (HL)

3. A 12 cm diameter straight pipe is laid at a uniform downgrade and flow rate is maintained such that velocity head in the pipe is 0.5 m. If the pressure in the pipe is observed to be uniform along the length when the down slope of the pipe is 1 in 10, what is the friction factor for the pipe? (a) 0.012 (b) 0.024 (c) 0.042 (d) 0.050 IES-28. Ans. (b) 1. Two pipelines of equal length and with diameters of 15 cm and 10 cm are in parallel and connect two reservoirs. The difference in water levels in the reservoirs is 3 m. If the friction is assumed to be equal, the ratio of the discharges due to the larger diameter pipe to that of the smaller diameter pipe is nearly, (a) 3.375 (b) 2.756 (c) 2.25 (d) 1.5. Ans. (b) 2. A pipe is connected in series to another pipe whose diameter is twice and length is 32 times that of the first pipe. The ratio of frictional head losses for the first pipe to those for the second pipe is (both the pipes have the same frictional constant): (a) 8 (b) 4 (c) 2 (d) 1 Ans. (d)
