Two piping system are said to be equivalent, when the ______________ are same?
Correct answer: C. Fluid flow rate & friction loss
- A. Diameter & friction factor
- B. Length & friction factor
- C. Fluid flow rate & friction loss
- D. Length & diameter
Explanation
Equivalent piping systems carry the same flow rate with the same frictional pressure or head loss under comparable conditions. Equal lengths, diameters, or friction factors alone do not establish equivalence.
