A small catchment is drained by a pipeline 400m long to the sea. 5 straight manholes are used as junction boxes with the first manhole at the inlet. The sea level is 1m below the ground level. Determine whether flooding will occur if the design discharge is 0.3m3 /s, the pipe diameter is 600mm, the Darcy friction coefficient is 0.04, and the exit loss coefficient Ke=1.0. If flooding occurs, determine the appropriate diameter of the pipes to eliminate flooding.

A pipeline transfers water from Reservoir A to Reservoir B. The difference in water-surface elevations between the two reservoirs is 20 m. The lengths of pipes 1, 2 and 3 are 1500 m, 2000 m, and 2800 m, respectively. The diameter of pipe 1 is 200 mm, The diameter of pipe 2 is 500 mm, and The diameter of pipe pipe 3 is 250 mm. The Darcy Weisbach friction coefficient of these pipes is 0.0045. Minor loss coefficients for pipe...
5) A 6-km cast-iron (new) pipeline conveys 0.32 m/s of water at 30°C. If the pipe diameter is 30 cm, compare the head loss calculated (a) Darcy-Weibach equation (f = 0.0195), (b) the Hazen- William equation (Chw = 130), and (c) the Manning equation (n=0.011). Use Excel. (Max. 15 Points) 6) Pipes AB and CF in figure below have a diameter of 48 in possess a Hazen-Williams coefficient factor of 100 and carry a discharge of 120 ft/s. The length...
Problem 3 A pipeline delivers water from Reservoir 1 to Reservoir 2 as shown in the following figure. The water levels at Reservoirs 1 and 2 are 50 ft and 20 ft, respectively. A globe valve is installed in the pipeline with a minor head loss coefficient k 10. The pipe from Reservoir 1 to the globe valve is 1000 ft long and 6 inches in diameter. The pipe from the globe valve to Reservoir 2 is also 1000 ft...
