I have been having a bit of trouble on deciding how to calculate the total discharge head via multiple lines..I have different flows for each line..Basically I have a main line leaving a pump and then it splits into two lines which lead to different vessels.
So am having problems on how should I do the calculations for this case.. Do I calculate the velocity of the fluid in each line then find reynold's number and further calculate the head due to frictional losses for each pipe then sum them together?
Please look at my diagram and tell me what i should do.. Remember my flows are different for each split line...Thank you for your time and consideration.
