Problem 1) The Figure below shows a pipe network with two tanks and assumed flow directions....
Question 1 The figure below shows a simple water pipe network. Relevant pipe properties are given in the figure and table below. The major losses of the pipes can be calculated by Darcy Weisbach equation. The friction factor () for all pipes is 0.015. Assuming that minor losses in the pipe network can be ignored and the pipe network is on a horizontal plane, determine the flow rates in all pipes using Hardy Cross method. Also, calculate the pressure head...
QA=2MGD, QE=1MGD, QF=0MGD, QG=2MGD, QPump=6MGD, Energy gradeline at node 1 (EGL1)=15. Diameter of the short pieces of pipe upstream and downstream of the pump is 24 inches. What is the hydraulic grade line at node 1 (HGL1)? A water network is forned of five pipas, one treated water reservoir and one pump. The demands at junction nodes # 3, 4 and 5 are: d3 - 3 MGD, 1 MGD and ds - 2 MGD. The water surface elevation in the...
Question D.1 A2 Not sure Water flows between two tanks connected by a 100 m long pipe as shown in figure D1-1 below The tanks have a free surface height difference of 15 m and are both open to atmosphere. The first 30 m of pipe from the upper tank (section 1) has an internal diameter of 50 mm and a friction factor of 0.006, whilist the remaining 70m of pipe (section 2) has an internal diameter mm and a...
