A pump transports water from Tank 1 to Tank 2 through a constant-diameter piping system as shown below (not to scale). The flow rate is controlled by two gate valves, the gate valve I controls the main pipeline, while the gate valve II controls the loop line from T-joint A to T-joint B. All pipes are galvanized steel pipe of diameter D = 4 in. It has a total length of Li2= 620 ft from tank 1 to tank 2....
A pump move warm water at 120F from a reservoir open to atmosphere. The pipe is 6" diameter cast and has a standard 90 degree elbow and a fully open gate valve. The pump draws water from a pipe submerged below the water surface. The pump is 10 feet above the reservoir surface, and there are 20 feet of pipe in the inlet section. If the flow rate is 1,650 gpm, what is the NPSHA at the pump inlet?

1) A water fountain is to be installed at a remote location by attaching a cast iron pipe directly to a water main through which water is flowing. The entrance to the pipe is sharp-edged 15m (K-0.5), and the 15m long piping system involves three 90 bends without vanes (K1.1), a fully open gate valve (K.-0.2), and a fully open angle valve (K-5). If the diameter of the pipe is 2 em and the system is to...
A pump delivers water at 200C between a reservoir and a water tank that is 75[ft] higher than the reservoir. The suction side of the system consists of a cast iron pipe of 1[ft]diameter with a strainer (Ks= 2.5) and four 90-degree bends at R/D= 5. The discharge side of the system includes a 1000[ft] long commercial steel pipe with 12” diameter followed by a gate valve. The NPSH required for the pump is 10[ft], and the design discharge is...
Two water reservoirs A and B are connected to each other through a 35m-long, 2-cm-diameter cast iron pipe with a sharp-edged entrance. The pipe also involves a swing check valve and a fully open gate valve. The water level in both reservoirs is the same, but reservoir A is pressurized by compressed air while reservoir B is open to the atmosphere at 94 kPa. If the initial flow rate through the pipe is 1.2 L/s, determine the air pressure (gage)...
A pump carries water at a temperature of 30 ° C from one tank
(A) to another (B). The diameter of the pipe leaving tank A and
reaching the pump is 4 inches. The diameter of the pipe leaving the
pump and reaching tank B is 3 inches. The pump motor increases the
fluid pressure by 3 kgf / cm2 (ΔP), and generates a power per unit
of mass of 300 J / kg. Calculate the height difference (ΔZ) between...
A farmer is to pump water at 70'F from a river to a water storage tank nearby using a 125-ft-long, 5-in-diameter plastic pipe with three flanged 90 smooth bends. The water velocity near the river surface is 6 ft/s, and the pipe inlet is placed in the river normal to the flow direction of water to take advantage of the dynamic pressure. The elevation difference between the river and the free surface of the tank is 12 ft. For a...

1. Two Galvanized iron (e= 0.15 mm) pipes in series connecting two reservoirs. First pipe is 400 m long and has diameter of 1.0 m (see next figure). The second pipe is 250 m long and has diameter of 0.70 m. The elevation of the water surface in thereservoir B is 50.00 m. The discharge from reservoir A to reservoir B is 1.0 m3/s. Thewater viscosity is 1.5 x 10-6 m/s. A gate valve is installed on...
A turbo pump transfers water from tank 1 to tank to tank 2 as
shown in the picture below. The diameter of the piping system is D=
4in and the total length of pipes is L=620 ft. the elevation
difference is Z1-Z2= 30ft. Use the chart for KL values.
