Which of the following conditions is valid in the case of flow through parallel pipes?
Question

Which of the following conditions is valid in the case of flow through parallel pipes?

A.

The rate of discharge in the main line is not equal to the sum of the discharges in each of the parallel pipes.

B.

The velocity of flow in the main line is equal to the sum of the velocities in each of the parallel pipes.

C.

The loss of head in each parallel pipe is different.

D.

The rate of discharge in the main line is equal to the sum of the discharges in each of the parallel pipes.

Correct option is D

When a pipes line divides into two or more parallel which again join together at downstream as shown in fig then pipe said to be in parallel.
In order to increase the discharge passing through main pipe, the pipes are connected in parallel.
The discharge in the pipe is equal to sum of the discharge in each of the parallel pipe
Q = QA + QB
When pipes are arranged in parallel, the loss of head in parallel pipes is same.
hA = hB
