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)...
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...
A pump that is 80% efficient pumps water from the lower tank to the upper tank at a flow rate of 0.01 m/s through 70 meters of 10-cm diameter pipe. In this system there are two regular, screwed 90 degree elbows and a fully open screwed angle valve. Assume the reservoir exits and entrances are sharp. The friction factor,f, of the pipe is 0.02. What horsepower pump is needed to achieve this flow rate? Use: Pwater = 998 kg/m2; Mwater...
A pump carries water at a temperature of 30 ° C from one tank (A) to another (B). The diameter of the pipe leaving tank A and reaching the pump is 4 inches. The diameter of the pipe leaving the pump and reaching tank B is 3 inches. The pump motor increases the fluid pressure by 3 kgf / cm2 (ΔP), and generates a power per unit of mass of 300 J / kg. Calculate the height difference (ΔZ) between...
yes you can Q) Methyl alcohol at 25 C is flowing at the rate of 54000 lit/h. The suction line is a standard 4-in Schedule 40 steel pipe, 1500 cm long. The total length of 2-in Schedule 40 steel pipe in the discharge line is 200 m. Assume the entrance from reservoir 1 is through a square-edged inlet and that the elbows are 90° standard. The valve is fully open globe valve. A) List the piping systems components B) Generate...
You need to pump water at 20 C from an open reservoir at flow rate of 1.4 x 10^-3 m3/s through a pipe with an inside diameter of 0.03m, using a centrifugal pump having an (NPSH)aq =2.5 m and the equivalent length on the suction side is 3m. There are several minor losses: four standar 90 flanged elbows, and fully open flanged globe valve, fully open flanged gate valve, and the Entrance. What is the the maximum distance above the...
A centrifugal pump is used to pump water at 77ºF from a reservoir whose surface is 20 ft above the centerline of the pump inlet. The Pipe System consists of 67.5 ft of PVC pipe with a 1.2 in ID and negligible average internal roughness height. The length of the pipe from the bottom of the lower tank to the pump inlet is 12 ft. There are several minor losses in the pipe: an acute edge entry (KL = 0.5),...
Q4. A pump draws water from a large reservoir and delivers it to another reservoir whose water surface is 10 m higher than the pump centreline and that the pump is 1.5 meter above the suction reservoir. The total suction and deliver pipe used is 21.1 m in length, 9 cm in diameter and has a Darcy friction factor f0.0339. The pump operates at 750 rpm and its characteristic performances are given in table below: Q (m3 s H (m)15...
A pump move warm water at 120F from a reservoir open to atmosphere. The pipe is 6" diameter cast and has a standard 90 degree elbow and a fully open gate valve. The pump draws water from a pipe submerged below the water surface. The pump is 10 feet above the reservoir surface, and there are 20 feet of pipe in the inlet section. If the flow rate is 1,650 gpm, what is the NPSHA at the pump inlet?
