Water at 16,2°C is to be discharged from a reservoir at a rate of 16,2 L/s using two horizontal cast iron (roughness value ɛ=0.00026m) pipes connected in series and a pump between them. The first pipe is 26,2 m long and has a 66,2 mm diameter, while the second pipe is 36,2 m long and has a 46,2 mm diameter. The water level in the reservoir is 30 m above the centerline of the pipe. The pipe entrance is sharp-edged (KL=0.562), and losses associated with the connection of the pump are negligible. Neglecting the effect of the kinetic energy correction factor, determine the required pumping head, the minimum pumping power and electric motor power for total efficiency value of 76,2% to maintain the indicated flow rate. Water density is r=996,2 kg/m3, dynamic viscosity µ= 1.162x10-3kg/ms. Solve the problem by making the necessary assumptions and drawing the schematic figure.
Suppose the pump of Fig. P14–23 is operating atfree delivery conditions. The pipe, both upstream and downstreamof the pump, has an inner diameter of 2.0 cm andnearly zero roughness. The minor loss coefficient associatedwith the sharp inlet is 0.50, each valve has a minor loss coefficientof 2.4, and each of the three elbows has a minor losscoefficient of 0.90. The contraction at the exit reduces thediameter by a factor of 0.60 (60% of the pipe diameter), andthe minor loss coefficient of the contraction is 0.15. Note thatthis minor loss coefficient is based on the average exit velocity,not the average velocity through the pipe itself. The total length of pipe is 6.7 m, and the elevation difference is (z1 - z2)= 4.6 m. Estimate the volume flow rate through this pipingsystem. Complete Answer, Thank you
