A transmission pipeline that conveys water from an upstream reservoir to a downstream reservoir is indicated below. The transmission main has a valve along its length that controls the discharge in the system. The discharge through the valve is computed with the valve equation below. The pipeline has a length of 4,500 m, a Hazen-Williams 'C' factor of 110, and an inner diameter of 450 mm. The upstream reservoir has a water level of 105 m. The valve discharge constant...
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...
QUESTION3 The Figure below (Figure 3) shows a pipe system with a valve and two reservoirs. A pump transports a constant flow rate of Q = 0.1 m3/s of water from reservoir A to reservoir B. At four sections the pipe has bends and the roughness of the pipe is ks = 1.5 mm. The pipe has a diameter D = 34 cm and a total length L = 500 m. The water level in reservoir B is Δh=4.67 m above...
