QUESTION 4 A pipeline connected to a reservoir discharges water 30 m below the free surface in the tank. The pipeline crosses a ridge whose summit is 9 m above the level of free surface and 300 mm distant from the reservoir. The pipe is 0.6 m in diameter and 3 000 m long and the connection is sharp and sudden. Take f = 0.0075. Find 4.1 the minimum depth below the ridge at which the pipe must be laid, if the absolute pressure in the pipe is not to fall below 3 m of water. 4.2 the discharge

A 6-m-high, 5-m-wide rectangular plate blocks the end of a 5-m-deep freshwater channel, as shown . The plate is hinged about a horizontal axis along its upper edge through a point A and is restrained from opening by a fixed ridge at point B. Using appropriate software, investigate the effect of water depth on the force exerted on the plate by the ridge. Let the water depth vary from 0 to 5 m in increments of 0.5 m. Tabulate and plot your results.

The above pipe is exchanged for a parallel pipe with a cross sectional area of 0.3m2 and is 20 m long, with a surface roughness coefficient of 0.005. The dynamicviscosity of the water is 1.002 x 10-3 Ns/m. Find the Reynold’s number of the flowand use Haarland’s formula to find the friction coefficient and Darcy’s formula todetermine the frictional pressure loss. Then determine the pressure at the outlet ofthe pipe.
