A pump moves water horizontally at a rate of 0.02 m^3 /s. Upstream of the pump, where the pipe diameter is 90 mm, the pressure is 120 kPa. Downstream of the pump, where the pipe diameter is 30 mm, the pressure is 400 kPa. If the loss in energy across the pump due to fluid friction effects is 170 N.m/kg. Determine the hydraulic efficiency of the pump.

The old Hydraulics laboratory in Mechanical Engineering used a roof tank tosupply apparatus with water at a nearly constant head. The water wascollected in an under floor sump, and then pumped back to the roof tankafter the experiment. The flow rate was 10 litre s-1. The tank was 6m abovethe sump, and the length of the pipe route was 15 m. The old 6” pipes arenow heavily corroded (k = 7.5 mm). The old pump has been scrapped. Whathead ΔH would be specified for a pump to restore the system using the oldpipes? What would the pump power be? If the pipes were replaced with 150mm diameter PVC pipes, what pump ΔH would be required?

In the United States, energy for household heating is generally sold using English units, e.g., therm, gal, and cord. A house in Wisconsin uses 1200 therms of thermal energy during the heating season. Calculate the cost of fuel if the furnace uses (a) natural gas with an efficiency of 70%; (b) No. 2 fuel oil, efficiency 65%; (c) kerosene, efficiency 99.9% (unvented); and (d) wood with l5% moisture with an efficiency of 50%. Use the data in Tables 2.2, 2.7, and 2.13. The efficiencies are based on the HHV. Assume the cost of natural gas is $8/MBtu, the cost of No. 2 fuel oil is $3/gal, the cost of kerosene is $3.50/gal, and the cost of wood is $100/cord. Assume the bulk density of cord wood is 30 lbm/ft3 .
