Water flows through a set of pipes from a reservoir to the point of use, 12.5 m below thewater surface of the reservoir. The first pipe has a diameter and length of 125 mm and 20 mrespectively. The second pipe has a diameter of 175 mm. Determine the length of the secondpipe if a flow rate of 0.065 m3/s is required at the outlet of the second pipe.

A pump draws water from a 20 cm diam suction pipe and discharges through a15 cm diam pipe in which the velocity is 3.60 m/s. The pressure is – 34. 465 kPaat A in the suction pipe. The 15 cm diam pipe discharges horizontally into air atC. To what height h above B can the water be raised if B is 1.8 m. above A and20 hp is delivered to the pump? Assume that the pump operates at 80 %efficiency and that the frictional loss in the pipe between A and C is 3 m. Determine the inclination angle at point C for the water stream to reach a range of 50 m. Also, calculate the maximum height that the water can go from the selected datum plane.
A centrifugal pump which runs at 104.3 rad ·s−1 (16.6 rev/s) is mounted so that its centre is 2.4 m above the water level in the suction sump. It delivers water to a point 19 m above its centre. For a flow rate of Q (m3 ·s−1) the friction loss in the suction pipe is 68Q2 m and that in the delivery pipe is 650Q2 m. The impeller of the pump is 350 mm diameter and the width of the blade passages at outlet is 18 mm. The blades themselves occupy 5% of the circumference and are backward-facing at 35◦ to the tangent. At inlet the flow is radial and the radial component of velocity remains unchanged through the impeller. Assuming that 50% of the velocity head of the water leaving the impeller is converted to pressure head in the volute, and that friction and other losses in the pump, the velocity heads in the suction and delivery pipes, and whirl slip are all negligible, calculate the rate of flow in liter/s and the manometric efficiency of the pump.
