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...

Problem Statement 1 The pump in the system shown below is used to transport water from reservoir A to and discharge it to the open atmosphere at point B. The elevation difference between the two reservoirs is Az, and the piping has a 2000 ft length of 16-in diameter. The flow is fully turbulent with kinetic energy correction factor = 1.1 and the Darcy-Weisbach friction factor f = 0.0002. The minor losses in the system are negligible and can be...

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
