I am trying to design a water distribution system which basically consists of a horizontal pipe (dia 300mm) with 6 vertical outlets. I know the total flow rate required and that the flow out of each pipe must be equal. how do i determine the diameters of the pipes? I know that I can use continuity (Q=uA) but I'm not sure how to relate the velocity in the horizontal pipe just before the outlet with the velocity of the water in the actual outlet.
Hope that all makes sense! Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks
