Problem 5: A pressurized tank of water has a 10-cm-diameter nozzle at the bottom, where the liquiddischarges to the atmosphere. The liquid level is 2.5 m above the outlet and the tank diameter can beassumed to be much larger than the diameter of the discharge nozzle. The air pressure in the spaceabove the liquid is 250 kPa (absolute) while the atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa. Neglecting frictionaleffects, determine the rate of discharge (kg/sec) of liquid from the tank when the liquid level is 2.5mAir250 kPa25m10 cm

A pump takes water at 60 F from a largereservoir and delivers it to the bottom of anopen elevated tank 25 ft above the reservoirsurface through a 3-in ID pipe. The inlet tothe pump is located 10 ft below the watersurface, and the water level in the tank isconstant at 160 ft above the reservoir surface.The pump delivers 150 gal/min. If the total loss of energy due to friction in the pipingsystem is 35 ft-lb, per 1bm of fluid, calculatethe horsepower required to do the pumping.The pump-motor set has an efficiency of 55%.
A 90° elbow in a horizontal pipe is used to direct water flow upward at a rate of 40 kg/s. The diameter of the entire elbow is 10 cm. The elbow discharges water into the atmosphere, and thus the pressure at the exit is the local atmospheric pressure. The elevation difference between the centers of the exit and the inlet of the elbow is 50 cm. The weight of the elbow and the water in it is considered to be negligible. Determine (a) the gage pressure at the center of the inlet of the elbow and (b) the anchoring force needed to hold the elbow in place. Take the momentum-flux correction factor to be 1.03 at both the inlet and the outlet.
Two opened tanks filled with water are connected by seriel pipe AB and BC. AB pipe has a diameter of 10cm, and BC pipe is 6cm. The length of pipe for AB is 200m and for pipe BC is 150m. The flow rate of water entering the pipe is 0.007m³/s and coefficient of contraction is 0.62. If the energy losses ONLY occur due to the shock loss at sudden contraction and friction, calculate the level difference of the two tanks. Given f = 0.04 for both pipes.
1. Assume a horizontal shaft handling water at 65 deg C (Pv=2.503 KPa, Density=980.5 m3/kg). The suction nozzle is 4.35 m below the pump centerline and the pressure gauge reading at this point is 221Kpag. Determine the NPSHa if the head loss is 0.82 m. If the NPSHr is 3m less than the NPSHa you got on question number 1, determine the pump suction specific speed at pump rotating at 1800rpm and Q=500gpm
The cylindrical tank in Fig. is being filled with water at20 ° C by a pump developing an exit pressure of 175 kPa. At theinstant shown, the air pressure is 110 kPa and H = 35 cm. Thepump stops when it can no longer raise the water pressure. Forisothermal air compression, estimate H at that time.
A pump discharges 8000 liters per minute of a certain brine solution (SG=1.20) to an evaporating pond. The intake line is 25cm in diameter and is at the same level as the pump discharge line, which is 15cm in diameter. The pressure at the inlet of the pump is -170mm of mercury. The pressure gage connected to the pipe discharge reads 150 kPa, and its center is 2.0mabove the center of the discharge flange. The vapor pressure of the brine solution is 40mm of Hg. If the pump efficiency is 80%. How much power is required?
Two water reservoirs A and B are connected to each other through a 40-m-long, 2-cm-diameter cast iron pipe with a sharp-edged entrance. The pipe also involves a swing check valve and a fully open gate valve. The water level in both reservoirs is the same, but reservoir A is pressurized by compressed air while reservoir B is open to the atmosphere at 95 kPa. If the initial flow rate through the pipe is 1.5 L/s, determine the absolute air pressure on top of reservoir A. Take the water temperature to be 10°C.
