365) Consider the flow of air C=1.225kg/m2, 18 x 10- Pas) through an inclined, galvanized irom pipe (e=0.15mm) at a rate of Q-40s. For every 100m in the horizontal direction the pipe descends 50m in the vertical direction. a) (4,5v) If the pressure drop is to be no more than 15kPa per 100m of pipe, determine the minimum pipe diameter. b) (1,0v) Discuss the difficulties in solving this type of problems, in the context of pipe networks, regarding the level of complexity and solution methods.
