this is all of the information given Problem 3. A piping system consists of 1200 m of 5 cm diameter cast-iron pipe, two 45° and four 90° flanged long-radius elbows, a fully open flanged globe valve, and a sharp submerged exit into a reservoir. The elevation of the outlet relative to the inlet is 100 m. What gage pressure is required at the inlet to deliver 0.005 m2/s of water at 20°C into the reservoir? Assume that the density and...
Fluid Mechanics QUESTION 4 (a) What are the Energy Grade Line (EGL) and Hydraulic Grade Line (HGL) in a pipe system? (1 mark) A factory draws its water supply from a mountain lake located 75 m above the factory (a) without pump. The factory is at present been supplied via 300 m of 20 cm diameter cast iron pipe. For control purposes, there are five gate valves and one globe valve in the line, as well as three standard 90...
Water flows from the upper tank to the lower tank through a cast iron pipe of total length L-1100 ft through one half-closed gate valve, four regular 90° flanged elbows, and entrance/exit as shown. For 2 cases with the same pipe perimeter P 12 in., compute the volume flow rate (ft /s) through: circular pipe of diameter D, and equilateral triangular pipe with each side a. a) b) Note that the flow areas and hydraulic diameters will be different. Find...
The system shown in the diagram consists of 1200m of cast-iron pipe with an internal diameter of 5cm (roughness of 0.00015 ft), two 45o and four 90o long radius elbows, a fully open bevel seat globe valve, and a sharp exit into a reservoir. If the elevation difference between the inlet and level in the reservoir is 10m, what gauge pressure is required at point 1 to deliver 0.005m^3/s of water at 20oC into the reservoir (use density of 998.2...
Question in the picture smooth pipe: Total length, L Diameter, d -25 mm 4 m tank water (pa 1,000 kg/m3, μ 0.001 kg/ms) flows from a very large tank (that is open to atmosphere) through an L 4 m total length of smooth pipe of d = 25 mm diameter at a bulk velocity of 6 m/s. The water then exits the pipe at 3 m above ground as a free jet. The pipe network contains a gate valve (V),...
