Suppose that the axial-flow pump of Fig. with D =18 in, runs at 1800 r/min. (a) Could it efficiently pump25,000 gal/min of water? (b) If so, what head would result?(c) If a head of 120 ft is desired, what values of D and nwould be better?
Consider the following data relating toperformance of a centrifugal pump:speed 1200 rpm, flow rate 30 L/s, head 20 m, and power 5 kW. If the speed of the pump is increased to 1500 rpm, assuming the efficiency isunaltered, Find the new flow rate and head.
In Fig. there are 125 ft of 2-in pipe, 75 ft of 6-inpipe, and 150 ft of 3-in pipe, all cast iron. There are three90° elbows and an open globe valve, all flanged. If the exitelevation is zero, what horsepower is extracted by the turbinewhen the flow rate is 0.16 ft3/s of water at 20°C?
A fi reboat pump delivers water to a vertical nozzle with a3:1 diameter ratio, as in Fig. If duct and nozzle frictionare neglected and the pump provides 12.3 ft of head tothe fl ow, what will be the outlet fl ow rate?( a ) 85 gal/min, ( b ) 120 gal/min, ( c ) 154 gal/min,( d ) 217 gal/min, ( e ) 285 gal/min

Two 32-in pumps from Fig. are to be used in seriesat 1170 r/min to lift water through 500 ft of vertical castiron pipe. What should the pipe diameter be for most effi -cient operation? Neglect minor losses.
A 152.4 mm, Schedule 40 pipe line 91.4 m long conveys 3028 l/min of cold water from a pump to a point of discharge 24.4 m higher than the pump. There are four 90° elbow in the line. Find the pumps dynamic discharge head. Use Table of Equivalent Length of Straight Pipe (see image). Please help. Thank you :)
This very large reducing bend is in a vertical plane. Water is flowing. Diameter at 1 is 6 ft., diameter at 2 is 4 ft,, discharge Q is 300 cfs, and pressure at 1 is 40 psi. Neglect headloss. a) Find p2 in psi, and b) Find Fx, the force (vector) of the pipe bend on the water, x direction only: This is an energy and momentum problem. only HANDWRITTEN answer needed ( NOT TYPED)
The original design of a hydraulic turbine has data as follows: flow rate of 1 cumex, effective head of 50 m, and runner diameter of 1.5 m. If the same turbine design is to be used in another application where the available flow is 2.5 cumex and effective head is 75 m, what would be the runner diameter (in meters) for this new application?
A horizontal 90° elbow connects two 300 mm diameter pipes. The rate of water flow is 180L/s. The pressure at the inlet and the outlet of the elbow are 130kPa. Find the resultant thrust in the bend.
Hydraulic efficiency 85%, find Q in li/s. Power delivered 10,500 kW head of 320 m
1. A Pelton wheel of 4 m diameter operates with a head of 1000 m. Estimate the flow rate and power output of the machine, assuming that it operates at peak efficiency and there are no losses in the flow upstream of the turbine. 2. A Pelton wheel operates with a head of 400 m at 350 rpm, and it is powered by a jet 12 cm in diameter. Find the specific speed (U.S. customary units), and the wheel diameter, if there are no losses in the flow upstream of the turbine and it operates at peak efficiency.
