Q: 92 10.92 A pump that has the characteristic curve shown in the accompanying graph is to be installed as shown. What will be the discharge of water in the system? 10.93 If the liquid of Prob. 10.92 is a superliquid (zero head loss occurs with the flow of this liquid), then what will be the pumping rate, assuming that the pump curve is the same? Elevation 6 m L- 15 m D 25 cm f 0.020 L-285 m D-...
A 60 horsepower pump is used to move water from a large reservoir to another at a higher elevation. Measured data show that the head loss from station 1 to 2 can be calculated from hloss= cV2 where V is the fluid velocity in the pipeline and c is a constant Calculate the volumetric flow rate, Q, if c=2 s2/ft, d=10 in., h=50 ft , and npump=0.85 h Pump A 60 horsepower pump is used to move water from a...
If a pump with the characteristic curve shown in the accompanying graph (Figure 2) is used to pump water from the lower to the upper tank (water flows from Tank 2 to Tank 1 in this question) shown in Figure 1. Use information provided in Figure 1 and assume that diameter of pipe AB is 600 mm (DAB 600 ) and diameter of pipe BC is 300 mm DBc 300 mm) a. Find the operation point of this systenm b....
Problem 5. Water is being pumped from the lower reservoir to the upper reservoir shown below in Figure 5. Losses in this system follow the Darcy-Weisbach formula with B = 2 and the resistance coefficients in the two pipes are marked on the figure. The pump characteristic curve is given by the following equation: hp = 100-8260° where the head is in meters and the discharge Q is in m/s. Determine the discharge Q in the piping system using two...
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...
