Water flows from one large reservoir to another via a pipeline which is 0.9 m in diameter, 15km long, and for which f-0.04. The difference in height between the water surface levels in the two reservoirs is 50m. (a) Ignoring the minor losses in the pipeline, calculate the flow rate between the two reservoirs. (b) Assuming that the pipeline entrance and exit are sharp and that the minor losses are as in Table 1, calculate the discharge now. What is...
For flow in a pipe of uniform diameter D the loss in hydraulic head, h, is given by: L u2 D 2 where L is the length of the pipe, u is the average flow velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity and f is a constant. During reconfiguration of a plant it is estimated that the length of the pipe could be reduced by 15% and its diameter increased by 6%. Calculate the maximum percentage by which The...
4b. Later on, we will study a quantity called hydraulic head (h) which refers to the mechanical energy in a given mass of fluid. As water flows through a pipe, some amount of this energy, or head, is lost due to friction, and the resulting head loss (4h) can be calculated using the expression Ah = 25 (5) Where L is the length and D the diameter of the pipe, respectively, Vis velocity, g is gravity, and f refers to...

The hydraulic head loss in a pipe may be determined by the Darcy-Weisbach Equation as follows: H=(f*L*V^2)/(2*D*g) Where L is the length of the pipe, V is the follow velocity of water in a pipe, D is the pipe diameter, f is the coefficient of friction and g is the gravitational acceleration (32.2 ft/sec^2) Suppose the length of the pipe L has a constant length of 10 ft and the pipe has a constant diameter of .5 ft. The coefficient...

A light oil is flowing through a commercial steel pipe of diameter D1. The head available to produce flow is independent of the flow rate. It is decided to utilise this head to increase the oil flow rate fourfold by installing a second pipe in parallel with the first pipe and of the same length. What should the diameter of the second pipe be, if: (i) flow in each of the two pipes is highly turbulent and the same roughness...
