Task 1: You were asked to check up the status of the water system. Water at 24 °C is to be pumped from a Lower reservoir with 100 m elevation to another reservoir at a higher elevation 112 m through 150-m-long pipe as shown in Figure (1). The pipe is made of steel, and the diameter of the pipe is equal to 30 cm. Water is to be pumped by a 72% efficient motor-pump combination that draws 33 A of...

A centrifugal pump test yields the following data: Pump Head Flow (m)(L/min) 30 25 20 40 The pump curve can be approximated by a parabola. This pump draws water from a large reservoir. The discharge of the pump feeds 150 m of 1.5 cm inside diameter pipe and then 225 m of 3 cm inside diameter pipe.. The two pipes both have a roughness of 0.5 mm The 3 cm pipe discharges to atmosphere a distance 40 m below the...
Water is pumped up from the Colorado River to supply Grand Canyon Village, located on the rim of the canyon. The river is at an elevation of 564 m, and the village is at an elevation of 2,095 m. Imagine that the water is pumped through a single long pipe 19.0 cm in diameter, driven by a single pump at the bottom end. (a) What is the minimum pressure at which the water must be pumped if it is to...
[Problem 3] Two reservoirs are connected using the piping network shown in the figure. The pipes are commercial steel. water is to be pumped using a pump (efficiency = 70%) that draws 8 kw of electric power from the mains. Ignore minor losses. Determine the flow rate through each pipe and the total flow between the reservoirs. Start with a friction factor of 0.02 for all pipes and use the Haaland equation to calculate updated friction factors. Ignore the length...

Water (density 1000 kg/m3, viscosity- 1.15 x 10-3 N-sms transferred from the lower rescrvoir through a mortar ined steel circular pipe of 350 m long and 0.15 m diameter to the upper reservoir as shown in Figure E5.2 Two identical centrifugal pumps having opcration charactcristics as shown in the following Table ES.5 when it is running at 960 rpm. Difference between free water surfaces of the two reservoirs is 40 m. Friction factor of the pipe can be assumed to...
Q3 (40 pts): Water is pumped through a 60-m-long, 0.3-m-diameter pipe from a lower reservoir to a higher reservoir, which has a water surface 10 m above the lower one. When the pump adds 40 kW to the water the flowrate is 0.20 m/s. Assume the following coefficients of minor losses: • Entrance: Kentrance = 0.5 Exit: Kexit = 1 Each elbow: Kelbow = 1.5 • Valve: K= 6 Part A (20 pts) Determine the pipe roughness ε. Part B...
8-C) As shown below water is pumped and sprayed through a nozzle into the atmosphere at 20 m/s at an elevation 10 m above the reservoir surface. The mass flow rate is 40 kg/s and the volumetric flow rate is 0.040 m3/s. The large diameter inlet pipe total length is 50 m. The pump effidency is 65%. The longer smaller diameter pipe leaving the pump is 200 m in total length. The pipes have different diameters as indicated below. The...
Water is pumped from reservoir A to B. The water-surface elevations in the reservoirs A and B WCalier enange is 4.1 kPa. 7.11 and 318 m, respectively. The suction line is 9.5 cm, which is short enough that the are 300 m head losses may be neglected. The pressure pipe is 400 m long and 79 cm in diameter. There are three 90° and two 45° bends. Calculate the annual power bill for pumping 0.30 m?/s. Unit power cost is...
