Question

An incompressible fluid flows steadily through two pipes of diameter 0.15 m and 0.2 m which combine to discharge in a pipe of 0.3 diameter. If the average velocities in the 0.15 m and 0.2 m diameter pipes are 2 m/s and 3 m/s respectively, then find the average velocity in the 0.3 m diameter pipe.

Answer 1

Average velocity = 1.835 m/s
