A 50 mm diameter siphon discharges oil (SG=0.88) from a reservoir (elev. 20m) into open air (elev. 15m). The head loss from the reservoir (point 1) to the summit (point 2, elev. 22m) is 2.5 times the velocity head in the siphon and head loss from the summit to the discharge end is 4 times the velocity head in the siphon. What is the absolutepressure at the summit (point 2) assuming the atmospheric pressure to be 101.3 kPa? Do not write the unit. You will only input the numerical answer in the space provided. Unit of the Correct Answer: kPa (indicate the sign if negative) Decimal Places required in the final answer: 3
A 230-m-long pipeline delivers 20◦C water to a storage reservoir located downstream. The pipeline is galva-nized with an average roughness height of 0.2 mm. An axial pump is used to pressurize upstream water. Thewater surface in the reservoir is located 18 m above the centerline of the pump. The pump discharges waterat an absolute pressure of 400 kPa and a volume flow rate of 50 L/s. Calculate a diameter of pipe requiredto achieve such an operating condition. If needed, use the Moody diagram on the last page, or one can solvethe Colebrook equation using, for example, Matlab.
Water is pumped from a reservoir to a pressurized storage tank (P = 150 kPa gauge) atop a building by means of a centrifugal pump. There is a 70-m difference in elevation between the water surface in the reservoir and the end of the discharge line.

6 cm-diameter commercial steel pipeline is used to transport water at 10⁰C from a reservoir to a free discharge point. The pipeline consists of 85 m straight pipe, 2 wide open gate valves, 1 wide open angle valve, 4 standart 90⁰ elbows, 1 entrance from a reservoir and 1 free discharge. The elevation of the entrance is 10 m while the elevation of the discharge is 35 m. The inlet pressure is 20 psig and exit pressure is 0 psig. A pump is installed in the line to move the water. Calculate the pump work (J/kg) so the volumetric flow rate will be Q= 0.01 m3/s. (1 psi = lbf/in2).
