Q3 (40 pts): Water is pumped through a 60-m-long, 0.3-m-diameter pipe from a lower reservoir to...
Water, with density of 1000 kg/m3 and kinematic viscosity of 1.0 x 10- m2/s, is pumped through a total length of 60 m of pipe from a lower reservoir to a higher reservoir. The inner diameter of the pipe is 30 cm. Both reservoirs are open to the atmosphere, and the water surface of the higher reservoir is 10 m above that of the lower reservoir. The entrance from the lower reservoir to the pipe is sharp-edged, and along the...
1. Water is pumped from a low reservoir to a high reservoir that is 20 m higher in elevation. The water is flowing at 1.5 m/s through a 305 mm internal diameter piping system. The water is at 18 degrees C. There are 1,000 m of piping, six standard 45 degree bends, two standard 90 degree bends, a branch flow tee, three gate valves, a swing check valve, a square inlet and a square outlet. The piping and valves are...
14-34 A water pump is used to pump water from one large reservoir to another large reservoir that is at a higher elevation. The free surfaces of both reservoirs are exposed to atmo- spheric pressure, as sketched in Fig. P14-34. The dimen sions and minor loss coefficients are provided in the figure. The pump's performance is approximated by the expres- sion Havailable H av?, where the shutoff head H 40 m of water column, coefficient a = 0.053 m/Lpm?, available...
Task 1: You were asked to check up the status of the water system. Water at 24 °C is to be pumped from a Lower reservoir with 100 m elevation to another reservoir at a higher elevation 112 m through 150-m-long pipe as shown in Figure (1). The pipe is made of steel, and the diameter of the pipe is equal to 30 cm. Water is to be pumped by a 72% efficient motor-pump combination that draws 33 A of...
Water is being pumped from reservoir A to reservoir F through a 30-m long PVC pipe (e 0) of diameter 0.150 m. There is an open gate valve located at C; 90 bends (threaded) located at B. D and E; and a pump shown with the letter P. The pump is required to deliver 0.25 m'/s of water to reservoir F from A. NOTE: p. 1000 kg/m. y=9.80 kN/m, v= 1.12 x 10 m/s L-30-m to' -0.25m %2 10 m...
11. Water is pumped from a reservoir at a lower elevation to an elevated reservoir by using a suitable pump. The lower reservoir water level have an atmospheric pressure head of I and is at an elevation of 20 ft. while the intake/suction side of the pump is at an elevation of 25 ft. The water is pumped at a rate of 425 gpm in a 6" diameter pipe, friction factor () is 0.017 and the length of pipe is...
35. (a) A reservoir A discharges water to a lower reservoir B through a 3600 m long pipe of diameter 600 mm. The flow is due to gravity and the difference in surface water levels in A and B is 13 m. Reservoir A is now required to supply water also to a third reservoir C, the water surface of which is 15 m below that of A. The discharge to C is to be made from a 1200 m...
Water (density 998 kg/mº, dynamic viscosity 0.001 Pa s) is pumped between two reservoirs at a volumetric flow rate of 0.006 m/s through a 120-m long pipe of 5 cm diameter. The roughness ratio of the pipe is a/d = 0.001. There are some fittings and valves in the pipe system, as shown in Figure Q1. The loss coefficients of the valves and fittings can be found in Table Q1. The Darcy friction factor can be found in the Moody...
Problem 1: In the reservoir-pipe system below, water is supplied from reservoir A to reservoir B with a flowrate of 50 L/S. In the system, a pump with an efficiency value of n=0.70 is used. Length of the pipeline is L=5000m, pipe diameter is D=200 mm and the elevation difference between reservoirs is 40 m. According to this, a) Determine the required pump head (Hp). b) Find the required nominal pump power. c) Draw the relative energy grade line of...
(b) Water flows under gravity between two reservoirs through a pipe of length 5000m. The diameter of the pipe is 0.2 m and the roughness size is 0.04 mm. The water levels in the two reservoirs are maintained with a difference of 50 m. Determine the discharge through the pipe. Neglect all minor losses. Use the attached Moody diagram for estimation of friction factor. (10 marks) (c) In (b), now include entry loss at the upper reservoir with loss coefficient...
