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. The piping system consists of 80m of 5" SCH 40 steel pipe containing two 90o elbows, one gate valve, one rotary water meter, and six couplings from the reservoir to the pump; 3" SCH 40 steel pipe for 86m to the tank. The 3" pipe contains two gate valves, four 90o elbows, and ten couplings. It is desired to maintain a flow of water into the tank of 2.4 m3/min. Water temperature is 25oC.

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).
Water at 20°C is to be pumped from one tank (ZA=5 m) to another tank at a higher elevation (ZB=13 m) through two 36 m long pipes connected in parallel, as shown in the figure. . The pipes are made of commercial steel, and the diameters of the two pipes are 4 and 8 cm. Water will be pumped via a 70 percent efficient motor-pump coupling that extracts 8 kW of electrical power during operation. Minor losses and head loss in the pipes connecting the pipe joints parallel to the two tanks are considered negligible. Determine the total flow rate between the reservoirs and the flow rate through each of the parallel pipes. Hypothesis: 1.The flow is stationary and incompressible. 2. The input elects are negligible and therefore the flow is fully developed. 3. The elevation of deposits remains constant. 4. Minor losses and head loss in pipes other than parallel pipes are said to be negligible. 5. The flows through both pipes are turbulent (to be verified).
