- Water is discharged through a nozzle having a diameter of jet of 100 mm at a velocity of 60 m/s at a point 240 m. below the reservoir.1. Compute the total head loss.2. Compute the horsepower produced by the jet.3. Compute the power lost in frictionThe water is pumped to a higher elevation. diameter = 450 mm pressure = 250 kPa (it is maintained at the summit point) *Summit point = the pipe is 110 meters above the water reservoir* Q (discharge) = 1.56 m^3/sec Total loss due to friction = 8 m Determine the output power that must be furnished to the water. Kindly refer to the figure below.A system pumps water from a lower reservoir to a higher reservoir. The pipe diameter is 0.245 m and the pipe lengths are L1= 5 m, L2= 3 m, L3= 3 m, and L4= 0.3 m. The impeller of the centrifugal pump has a diameter of 0.5 m and operates at 900 rpm. The uniform blade height is 56 mm. The water enters the pump parallel to the pump shaft with a flow rate of 0.19 m3/s. Take viscosity as 0.00112 N s/m2. a) What would be the shaft power required to turn the impeller if the exit blade angle is 50 degrees. b) Find the major losses in the system. Take the pipe Darcy friction factor as 0.045. c) Find the minor losses in the system considering the 90 degrees elbows’ losses and the exit/entrance losses of the tanks. Consider that the exit of tank 1 is sharp-edged and take the loss coeffcient of the entrance of tank 2 as 1. d) Determine the difference in height between the water surfaces in the two tanks assuming that there are no losses within the pump.

- Hydrodynamics pumps (WRITTEN COMPLETE SOLUTION AND FIGURES IF NEEDED) 1. A centrifugal pump installation draws water from an open reservoir having a water elevation of 5 m above the pump centerline and delivers the water to another open reservoir 80 m above pump centerline. The rate of discharge is 600 li/min. The suction pipe has a diameter of 200 mm while that of the discharge pipe diameter is 150 mm. The friction loss at the suction is estimated to be 4 times the velocity head at the 200 mm suction pipe. At the discharge, the friction loss is estimated to be 21 times the velocity head at the 150 mm discharge pipe. If the overall mechanical efficiency is 77%, estimate the brake power input to thepump. a. brake power Answer : ____________________ kWRead the question carefully and give me right solution with clear calculations. Note: If you don't know the solution please leave it but don't give me wrong solution. At a river a suitable site for a run-of-the river installation has an available head of 13 m between the water intake and the turbine house. Environmental guidelines permit to extract water for hydropower only if it is in excess of 2.8 m3/s. Estimate the power generated in kW when the flow in the river is 10.9 m3/s for a turbine with an efficiency of 90%. Present the answer as integer in kW.A turbine is installed between reservoirs A and B whose difference in water surface elevation is 140m. The pipe connecting the reservoir has a diameter of 250mm and is 180m long. The flow of water is 180L/s. Use Hazen William's Formula with C1=100. What is the head extracted by the turbine?
- Design a pipe to supply water from the elevated tank to the demand point at a discharge rate of 0.05 m3/s. Use Galvanized Iron pipe and assume water temperature as 15°C. Minor losses can be neglected due to smooth transitions.Two reservoirs A and B having elevations 250 m and 100 m respectively are connected by a 250 mm diameter pipe 250 m long. A turbine is installed between the two reservoirs. The flow of water in the pipe is 140 liters per second. Use C1 = 120. Compute for (a) the head loss in meters in the pipe due to friction, (b) the head in meters extracted by the turbine, and (c) the power generated by the turbine in kWA pipeline 200 meters long delivers water from an impounding reservoir to a service reservoir with the difference in water levels of 20 meters. The pipeline of commercial steel is 400 mm in diameter. It has two 90 degree flanged elbows, a check valve, and an orifice (K_m= 2.5). Determine the flow through the pipe. Use a water temperature of 20 degrees Celcius.
- A pump delivers water from a lower to a higher reservoir. The difference in elevation between the reservoirs is 10 m. The pump provides an energy head of 11 m and the frictional losses amounts to 0.7 m. If the pipe diameter is 250 mm, calculate the discharge.HYDRAULICS an irrigation line carries water from a lake down into an arid valley floor 810 ft below the surface of the lake.
