A condensate pump installed at sea level draws water from a surface condenser where the pressure is 12 in. Hg vacuum. Friction and turbulence losses in the piping system is estimated o be 6 ft. The pump requires a net heat at the suction of 10 ft. Determine the minimum level of water in the condenser that must be maintained to avoid cavitation.

- Water is supplied in a 2-in. dia. pipe at the rate of 2 cfs to a 10-hp, 80-percent efficient pump. Determine the pressure rise if the exit pipe is of (a) 2-in. diameter and (b) 3-in. diameter. Answers from book: a) 2200 psf. b) 8740 psfarrow_forwarda) Calculate the maximum flux the liquid water can have ( η = 0.891 cP and ρ = 0.998 g/mL a 20 ºC) when flowing through a 2 mm diameter tube, in the laminar regime.b) If the pressure when entering the tube is 1 bar, how many meters will it need for the pressure to decrease a 10%? Data: dina/cm3 = 10 Pa/m; 1 bar = 105 Pa. Results: 2.81 cm3/s, 1.57 marrow_forwardBilly flew from New York to Cincinnati and had a closed container with a closed outlet to drink from. The container has a diameter of (D. = 5 cm) and height of (H. = 27 cm). The container is filled with 72% of water. The container's outlet has a diameter of (D. = 1 cm) and height of (H, = 30 cm). Last moment container was opened was in New York at an atmospheric pressure of 1072 hPA. When Billy landed in Cincinnati the atmospheric pressure was 850. When Billy opened the bottle once again water discharged because of difference in pressure. 1. Calculate instantaneous flow rate at the point when the closed containers outlet was opened. Assume pressure in the closed container is the difference between cities = 222 hPa and air pressure in Cincinnati 0. Figure 1: Do = Icm Ho = 30 cm %3D 27 = H. Cm Hw Dc =5 Cmarrow_forward
