P.2 The reservoirs in Fig. are connected by cast-iron pipes (e=0.00015ft) joined abruptly, with sharp-edged entrance...
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)...

4. Figure 2 shows two reservoirs which are connected by three pipes of different diameters. The length and diameter of each pipe are given in Table 1. The flow rate in the pipeline is 55 Ls. The entrance and exit from the pipes are sharp and the change between the pipelines in the cross sections is sudden. Assume the friction factor, /for the pipes as 0.01. (a) Analyse all the head losses which occur, giving an expression for each. (7...
In the given figure, the pipe entrance is sharp-edged. The elevation at the entrance is Az 44 m. If the flow rate is 0.004 m3/s, what power in Wis extracted by the turbine? For water at 20 "C, take p 998 kg/m3 and ? 0.001 kgm s. For cast on take ? ~ 0.26 mm. The minor loss coefficients are Entrance: 0.5; 5-cm 2 open globe valve: K-6.9 Take ?-227 For the given flow. take f 0.0316. Round the answer...
fluid mechanics ASAP please Problem 4 (50 points) Water is discharged from a reservoir at a rate of 18.103 m3/s using two horizontal cast iron pipes connected in series and a pump between them. The first pipe is 20 m long and has a 6-cm diameter, while the second pipe is 35 m long and has a 4-cm diameter. The water level in the reservoir is 30 m above the centerline of the pipe. The pipe entrance is sharp-edged. Losses...
2) In the Figure below, the pipe entrance is sharp-edged. If the flow rate is 0.004 m3/s, what power, in W, is extracted by the turbine? (For water at 20°C, take ρ-998 kg/m3 and μ 0.001 kg/ms. For cast iron, take ε ~ 0.26 mm) Open globe valve Turbine 40 m Water Cast iron: L 125 m, D 5 cm
As shown in the figure we are dealing with a pipe system in which there are 125 ft of 2-in pipe, 75 ft of 6-in pipe, and 150 ft of 3-in pipe, all cast iron. There are two 90° elbows and an open globe valve. If the exit elevation is zero, what horsepower is extracted by the turbine when the flow rate is 0.16 ft3/s of water at 20°C? Elevation 100 sudden expansion from 2" to 3": KL =0.79 2...
2. Water flows at a rate of 60 L/s from a main reservoir to a subsidiary through a 600 m long, 185 mm diameter asphalted cast iron pipe as shown in the figure. The pipeline contains a gate valve, a globe valve and 4 standard 90° elbows. The entrance and exit are square edged, and all fittings are screwed ends, determine, You need Kinematic viscosity of water, 1 x 10-6 m/s2 (a) The friction head loss in the pipe, (b)...

Two reservoirs are connected using the piping network shown in the figure. The pipes are commercial steel. Water is to be pumped using a pump (efficiency = 70%) that draws 8 kW of electric power from the mains. Ignore minor losses. Determine the flow rate through each pipe and the total flow between the reservoirs. Start with a friction factor of 0.02 for all pipes and use the Haaland equation to calculate updated friction factors. Ignore the length of the...
