Consider water at 20ºC flowing from reservoir A, through the system in the following figure, to a tap with a target exit volumetric flow rate of Q = 0.001m3/s. Select suitable pipes based on pipe diameter, D, and a suitable pump based on pump power, P.
FIRST CONFIGURATION:
Reservoir A exit is well-rounded.
The diameter of every pipe is D.
A globe valve which acts as an emergency cut-off and stops the flow for maintenance purposes is fully open during operation
The tap has an exit diameter of D.
SECOND CONFIGURATION:
Compare the given configurations in terms of friction and pumping power requirement (You need to select a material and a pipe diameter. Make sure that the diameter is suitable with respect to the engineering standards).

The length of the suction pipe leading to the pump is 3.5 m, and 7 m of discharge pipe extend from the pump outlet to the upper tank. There are three standard 900 elbows and a fully open gate valve. The depth of the fluid level inside the lower...
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...
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...

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...
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....
In a hydroelectric power station, the turbine is driven by water flowing from a reservoir at the rate of 551 m s. The water is pumped through a pipe 2.06 km long of 2.53 m intemal diameter with a friction factor of 0.004. The water is assumed to have a kinematic viscosity of 13x10 mʻls.
