Pipes in series
- Pipe in series or compound pipes are defined as the pipes of different lengths and different diameters connected end to end (in series) to form a pipeline.
- Discharge through each pipe is same.
- The pressure is high.
- The total loss of energy or head loss will be the sum of the losses in each pipe.
Additional InformationPipes in parallel
- If a main pipe divides into two or more branches and again join together downstream to form a single pipe, then the branched pipes are said to be connected in parallel (compound pipes).
- The rate of flow in the main pipe is equal to the sum of the rate of flow through pipes.
- The loss of head for each branch pipe is same.
