For the simple pipe networks shown in Figure P14–7, determine the pressures at nodes 1, 2, and 3 and the volumetric flow rates through the branches. Assume the pressure at node 4 is zero. In network (a), let Q = 1 m3/s. Let the resistances be, R1 = 1; R2 = 2; R3 = 3; R4 = 4 and R5 = 5 all in units of N-s/m5. In network (b), let Q = 1000 in3/s and the resistances be R1 = 10; R2 = 20; R3 = 30; R4 = 40, and R5 = 50 all in units of lb-s/in.5
