In this task, you are asked to explore the operating principles and efficiencies of hydraulic machines. A) Determine the input power required for a pump that is attached to the end of a pipeline with a height of 50 m to pump water into the storage tank at a volumetric flow rate of 0.005 m³/s if its efficiency is 60 %.

A 10-hectare rice land is to be irrigated at the peak water requirement of 10 mm/day. The source of water is pump from a river with outlet discharge directly to the irrigation canal. If the pump operates at 10 hours per day, what should be the capacity of the pump? What should be the size of engine if the total dynamic head is 10 meters. Assume pump efficiency to be 80 percent and engine to be 75 percent.

(20) Question 2 A hydraulic motor is directly coupled to the drum of a belt conveyor. The drum diameter is 0.75 m, the conveyor belt moves at a speed of 3 m/s and the motor must transfer a torque of 995 Nm to the drum. Assume the pressure drop across the motor is 22 MPa and that the motor has an overall and mechanical efficiency of 0.92 and 0.96 respectively. Determine the displacement volume of the motor, the flow rate required in litres per second and the hydraulic power supplied to the motor.
After graduation, you work for a pump manufacturing company. One of your company’s best-selling products is a water pump, which we shall call pump A. Its impeller diameter is DA = 6.0 cm, and its performance data when operating at n. A = 1725 rpm (?A = 180.6 rad/s) are shown in Table.The marketing research department is recommending that the company design a new product, namely, a larger pump (which we shall call pump B) that will be used to pump liquid refrigerant R-134a at room temperature. The pump is to be designed such that its best efficiency point occurs as close as possible to a volume flow rate of V. B = 2400 cm3 /s and at a net head of HB = 450 cm (of R-134a). The chief engineer (your boss) tells you to perform some preliminary analyses using pump scaling laws to determine if a geometrically scaled-up pump could be designed and built to meet the given requirements. (a) Plot the performance curves of pump A in both dimensional and dimensionless form, and identify the best…

You and your team are assigned to develop a huge hydroelectric power plant, as shown in Figure Q2b, to supply electric power to the residents. In the plant, 98 m3/s of water will flows from an elevation of 110 m to a turbine, where electric power is generated. The turbine employed in this plant having same inlet and outlet diameter, as well as an overall efficiency of 84 %. Unfortunately, friction is unavoidable when the water flow through the long piping system. In this regard, head loss in this plant is expected to be 21 m. Determine if this hydroelectric plant able to supply sufficient amount of electric power output if the desired electric power output to support the residents’ need is 75 MW.
