Example (1-2): A pump delivers water from a tank A (water surface elevation = 110 m) to tank B (water surface elevation = 170 m). The suction pipe is 45 m long (friction factor, f = 0-024) and 35 cm in diameter. The delivery pipe is 950 m long (f =0-022) and 25 cm in diameter. The head discharge relationship for the pump is given by Hp = (90 - 8000 Q²), where Hp is in metres and Q in m³/s. Calculate: (i) The discharge in the pipeline. (ii) The power delivered by the pump.

Assume h L = 3 m of water and α 1 =α 2 = 1. Find the following Draw the Schematic diagram Drive the energy equation Calculate pump head Power requirement
Water from a reservoir is pumped over a hill through a pipe 450 mm in diameter and a pressure of 1 kg/cm2 is maintained at the summit. Water discharge is 30 m above the reservoir. The quantity pumped is 0.5 m3/sec. Frictional losses in the discharge and suction pipe and pump is equivalent to 1.5 m head loss. The speed of the pump is 800 rpm what amount of energy must be furnished by the pump, kW?
A fully-filled open storage tower of height 32 m and diameter 3.0m supplies water to a house. A horizontal pipe at the base of the tower has a diameter of 2.54cm. To satisfy the needs of the home, the supply pipe must be able to deliver water at a rate of 0.67 gal/s. a. If water were flowing at the maximum rate, what would be the pressure in the horizontal pipe?b. A smaller pipe, of diameter 1.27 cm supplies the second floor of the house, a distance of 7.2 m above the ground level. What are the flow speed and water pressure in this pipe?
A sump pump (used to drain water from the basement of houses built below the water table) is draining a flooded basement at the rate of 0.85 L/s, with an output pressure of 3.05 × 105 Pa. a. The water enters a hose with a 2.8 cm inside diameter and rises 2.4 m above the pump. What is its pressure at this point, in pascals? You may neglect frictional losses. ( dont forget to convert the diameters of pipes into meters.) b. The hose then goes over the foundation wall, losing 0.35 m in height, and widens to 4.4 cm in diameter. What is the pressure now, in pascals? You may neglect frictional losses. ( dont forget to convert the diameters of pipes into meters.) Note: answer iS NOT 3.29 x 10^5 for either of these.
In an industrial cooling process, water is circulated through a system. If water is pump from the first floor through a 6cm diameter pipe with a speed of 0.45 m/s under a pressure of 400torr, what will be the pressure on the nest floor 4m above into a pipe with diameter 2cm? Show your solution
A reservoir supplies water through 100 m of 30-cm-diameter cast iron pipe to a turbine that extracts 80 hp from the flow. Given that Δz = 30 m. The water then exhausts to the atmosphere. Neglect minor losses. For water at 20°C, take ρ = 998 kg/m3 and μ = 0.001 kg/m-s. Take π = 22/7. In determining the flow rate of the given flow, two solutions are obtained. Are both the solutions valid? Yes or no?
