Problem 3 A pipeline delivers water from Reservoir 1 to Reservoir 2 as shown in the following figure. The water levels at Reservoirs 1 and 2 are 50 ft and 20 ft, respectively. A globe valve is installed in the pipeline with a minor head loss coefficient k 10. The pipe from Reservoir 1 to the globe valve is 1000 ft long and 6 inches in diameter. The pipe from the globe valve to Reservoir 2 is also 1000 ft...
Water is flowing in a 12-inch pipe inclined downward on a slope of 10% as shown below. The discharge is 1000 gpm and piezometers located 30 ft. apart measure a difference in piezometric head of 0.1 ft. a) What is the pressure drop across the pipe? b) What is the shear stress exerted on the pipe boundary? c) What is the shear velocity? d) What is the Darcy friction factor?
1. At the bottom of a water reservoir the absolute pressure is 180 ft. The reservoir is located at sea level where the atmospheric pressure is 33.9 ft. A water intake line is located half way down the reservoir. At what depth in the reservoir is the intake line? 2. It has been shown by experiment that the resistance to flow in a pipe is: (circle all correct answers to receive any credit) A. Dependent on the pressure under which...
Problem 1 Water flows down the sloped pipe as shown. There is a partial obstruction in the pipe between sections (1) and (2) so the manometer must be used to determine the difference in pressure these two sections. (a) If the pressure at section 1 is 200 kPa, determine the pressure at section 2. (b) Use your answer from (a) to determine the headloss between sections 1 and 2 (c) What would the manometer reading be if there was no...
A given pipe having 250 mm diameter at section A and 500 mm diameter at section B carries petrol of specific gravity 0.89 at the flow rate of 270 l/s. The section B is at altitude of 14 m above section A. If the pressure of the petrol at section A and section B are 190 KPa and 150 KPa respectively. 1 - Calculate the Head Loss between the two sections; 2 - Change the unit flow rate in USA...
Water flows in a pipe as shown in Figure Q3. At section 1, height to the centre line of pipe in relation to some datum is Zi (=3m). At section 2, the respective height is Z2 = 5m) as shown. The pipe diameters in section 1 and 2 are 500mm and 440mm respectively. Water velocity at section 1 is 5.6 m/s and the pressure is 45 kPa. Assuming ideal flow conditions and taking water density as 1000 kg/m. 1. Calculate...
