39. (a) Water flows under gravity from Reservoir A to Reservoir B first through a 900-m long pipe (pipe a) and then through two pipes (b and c) in parallel. The lengths, diameters and friction factors of the pipes are listed in the table. The water level in Reservoir A is always higher than that in Reservoir B by 20 m. Calculate the total discharge between the reservoirs. Neglect all minor losses. (15 marks) (b) Which of pipes b and...
1. A constriction meter in a 2-inch diameter pipeline consists of a short section of 1.2-inch diameter pipe (as shown below). The contraction and expansion are abrupt with 0 = 180 degrees. When the flow rate is 0.19 cfs the pressure at point 1 is 14 psi. (a) For this flow rate, calculate the level of the energy grade line (EGL) and hydraulic grade line (HGL) before the contraction (point 1), in the contraction (point 2) and after the expansion...

Use the attached Moody diagram for estimation of friction factor. (10 marks) (c) In (b), now include entry loss at the upper reservoir with loss coefficient...
35. (a) A reservoir A discharges water to a lower reservoir B through a 3600 m long pipe of diameter 600 mm. The flow is due to gravity and the difference in surface water levels in A and B is 13 m. Reservoir A is now required to supply water also to a third reservoir C, the water surface of which is 15 m below that of A. The discharge to C is to be made from a 1200 m...

Two reservoirs with their water levels 15m apart are connected with two pipes in series. The pipe that leaves the upper reservoir is 200mm diameter, 200m long and has a friction factor of 0.003. This pipe then connects to a 100mm diameter pipe that is 300m long with a friction factor of 0.00146. The fittings to consider are: Sudden entrance from tank to...
Two tanks A and B are connected by a pipe 100 ft. long. The first 70 ft. has a diameter of 3 in. and then the pipe is suddenly reduced to 2 in. for the remaining 30 ft.
