C.) A water pump has one inlet and two outlets as shown in the attachment. They are all at the same elevation. What pump power is required if the pump is 85% efficient? Neglect all losses. D.) For the pipe enlargement shown, the pressurers at sections 1 and 2 are 46.3 and 49.2 respectively. Determine the weight flow rat ...continues
Manometer Problem & Tank Velocity Problem
See Attachment for Problem 75: Figure 6.32 shows a manometer being used to indicate the pressure difference between two points in a pipe system. Calculate the volume flow rate of water in the system if the manometer deflection, h, is 250 mm (Arrangement known as venturi meter). See 2nd attachment for Problem 87
15%) 3. An angle valve (K = 5.0) is placed in a 50 foot run of 2 " commercial steel pipe. What is the equivalent length of the pipe and valve?
Find the total head loss if the flow velocity is 16ft/sec in the 2" pipe. The pipes are all commercial steel. (The loss factor for the entrance to the 4" pipe is 0.5 and the 2"pipe exit loss factor is 1.0
Finding Horsepower using the Energy Equation
Please give me some feedback on this problem - In Attachment figure, there are 150 ft of 2" diameter pipe, 90 ft of 6" diam. pipe, and 180 ft of 3" diam. pipe, all wought iron. There are two 90 degree elbows and fully open globe valve. If the exit elevation is zero, what power in horsepower is extracted by the turbine from 20 ...continues
Automobile Pump power using energy equation
Please give me some feedback on this problem - Gasoline is pumped from the gas tank of an automobile to the carburetor through a 10 ft long, 1/4" diameter fuel line of steel tubing. The line has five 90 degree smooth bends with r/d of 6. The gasoline discharges through a 1/32" diameter jet in the carburetor to a pressure of 14 ...continues
Finding Vertical Distance in Pipe Line System
Any help on this would be much appreciated! Thanks!For the system in attachment, calculate the vertical distance between the surfaces of the two reservoirs when water at 10 degrees celcius flows from A to B at the rate of 0.03 m^3/s. Both pipes are cast iron and the elbows are standard. The total length of the 3" pipe is 100 m ...continues
2 small problems involving Head loss and fluid flow
In figure 2. if Headloss 1->2 = 3 ft and headloss 2->3= 2ft find the velocity at point 2. Figure 3 is attached as well and written.
IN figure 2 the cross sectional area at point 1 ia 5"^2 and at point 2, it's 10"^2. If the pressure at point 1 is 100 psi and the friction loss between the two points is 30 ft. find the pressure at point 2. Q=100gpm = constant 1 gal water=321"^3 jw=62.4 lb/ft^3
A venturi has a large section diameter of 4', where the velocity V1=20ft/sec. The pressure difference between this section and throat, (P1-P2) = 25 psi. If the fluid is sea water (Sg=1.03) what is the diameter of the throat? Use figure #3 attached
