A 12-in diameter pipe conveys fluid at 8 ft/s between two tanks. The friction factor f is 0.02. The pipe entrance and exits are both squared edged. The pipe also contains a fully-open gate valve. Determine what percent of the head loss is due to minor losses for the following three pipe lengths: (a) 4 ft, (b) 80 ft, (c) 1600 ft. Comment on whether minor losses are always “minor”.

Problem 5 A 12-in diameter pipe conveys fluid at 8 ftl/s between two tanks. The friction factor fis 0.02. The pipe entrance and exits are both squared edged. The pipe also contains a fully-open gate valve. Determine what percent of the head loss is due to minor losses for the following three pipe lengths: (a) 4 ft, (b) 80 ft, (c) 1600 ft. Comment on whether minor losses are always "minor". Problem 5 A 12-in diameter pipe conveys fluid at...
Please solve a,b,c,d,e,f 1) A water fountain is to be installed at a remote location by attaching a cast iron pipe directly to a water main through which water is flowing. The entrance to the pipe is sharp-edged 15m (K-0.5), and the 15m long piping system involves three 90 bends without vanes (K1.1), a fully open gate valve (K.-0.2), and a fully open angle valve (K-5). If the diameter of the pipe is 2 em and the system is to...
A 1-mile long 12-inch diameter asphalt dipped cast iron pipe (e = 0.00085 ft) conveys 60°F water at 3 cfs. Determine (a) friction factor f using the Moody Diagram, (b) f using the Colebrook equation, (c) head loss over the 1 mile distance, (d) slope of the EGL. Problem 2 A 1-mile long 12-inch diameter asphalt dipped cast iron pipe (e = 0.00085 ft) conveys 60℉ water at 3 cfs Determine (a) friction factor fusing the Moody Diagram, (b) fusing...
