Gasoline (SG-0.7) at 70 gallons per minute flows in 200 feet of 3 inch diameter galvanized...
Water flows at a rate of 14.7 gallons per minute in a new horizontal 1.1-in.-diameter galvanized iron pipe. Determine the pressure gradient, Δpl , along the pipe.
A water supply system draws from a river at an elevation of 800-feet and delivers the water to a storage reservoir at elevation 820-feet. The supply pipeline is a 1000-foot long, 10-inch diameter, cast iron pipe. A single pump with the pump characteristic curve in Figure 1 is used to fill the reservoir. Determine: a) Sketch the system described in the problem statement. b) Inlet and outlet minor loss coefficients, cite your source of minor loss coefficients. c) The roughness...
1. You are designing a pumping station and have been asked to size and select a pump from 2 models. The system step is as follows: the discharge line is a 21-inch diameter PVC pipe with an assumed constant friction factor of f 0.014. The length of the piping is 2300 ft with an elevation gain of 40 ft and an exit loss (K-1.0).. The pump station is located near sea level and the temperature of the flow stream is...
(100 points) Water at 25°C is pumped at a rate of 0.075m's from a reservoir 20m above a pump to a free 1. discharge (this means discharged to atmosphere) 35m above the pump. The pressure on the intake side of the pump is 150kPa and the pressure on the discharge side of the pump is 450kPa. The pipe between the reservoir and the pump is 3 meters of Sin diameter cast iron. From the pump to the discharge the pipe...
