Problem 5: The 28-in-diameter pump in the Figure at 1170 r/min is used to pump water at 20°C through a piping system at 14,000 gal/min. (a) Determine the required brake horsepower. The average friction factor is 0.018. (b) If there is 65 ft of 12-in-diameter pipe upstream of the pump, how far below the surface should the pump inlet be placed to avoid cavitation? Given that the water at 20 °C has a specific weight of 62.4 lbf/ft and vapor...
A centrifugal pump operating under steady flow conditions delivers 2,270 kg/min of water from an initial pressure of 82,740 Pa to a final pressure of 275,800 Pa. The diameter of the inlet pipe to the pump is 15.24 cm and the diameter of the discharge pipe is 10.16 cm. What is the work?
7.14 The pump in Fig. 7.20 delivers water from the lower to the upper reservoir at the rate of 0.057 m3/s. The energy loss between the suction pipe inlet and the pump is 1.83 m and that between the pump outlet and the upper reservoir is 3.66 m. Both pipes are 6-in Schedule 40 steel pipe. Calculate (a) the pressure at the pump inlet, (b) the pressure at the pump outlet, (c) the total head on the pump, and (d)...
1 A pump delivers water from the lower reservoir to the upper reservoir at a rate of 60 L/s. Both the suction and discharge pipes are DN 150 schedule 40steel pipe. 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...
A centrifugal pump is pumping water at a rate of 35.55 gal/min. The pressures at the inlet, and outlet of the pumps are -2.26 psig and 7.715 psig respectively. The outlet pipe is placed 10 inches higher than the inlet pipe. The inlet and outlet diameters of the pipe are 1.85 in and 1.6 in respectively and the torque produced by the pump rotating at 1593 rpm is 3.172 ft.Ibf. Calculate the following in SI units: a) Total head b)...
(Q1) The piping system shown here has a pump that delivers 10 hp to the fluid ant a flow rate of 55 gpm of water at 80 F. Neglecting other losses, (a) evaluate the friction losses in the 272 ft-long discharge pipe and in the 12 ft- long suction pipe. (b) Calculate the pressure (psig) on top of the discharge tank. ...(25 marks) an 7 1.5 in Schedule 80 pipe 220 2 in Schedule 80 pipe

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...
