Question:
A flow is divided into two branches as shown. A gate valve, half open, is installed in line A, and a globe valve, fully open, is installed in line B. The head loss due to friction in each branch is negligible compared with the head loss across the valves. Find the ratio of the velocity in line A to that in line B (include elbow losses for threaded pipe fittings).
