Q3: Find the diameter of a circular orifice to discharge (0.015m '/ sec) under a head of (2.4m). If the orifice is in a vertical plane and the jet falls (0.25m) in a horizontal distance of (1.3m) from the vena-contracta. Find the head loss through the orifice
At point A where the diameter at of the pipe is 18 cm the pressure reading is 22.5 cm of Mercury. At point B, 3 m lower than A, the diameter is 48 cm and the pressure reading is 50 cm of Mercury. If the total head loss between the two points is 1.50 m, solve for the discharge. Water is flowing through the pipe. subject: hydraulics
Water flows in a 100 mm (4 in.) commercial steel pipe at 15°C (59°F). If the center velocity is 1 m/s (3.3 ft/s) what is the flowrate?
The suction water level of a reservoir A is 5m above pump centerline and discharge water level is 50m above pump centerline. The discharge is 2m with suction pipe of 100mm diameter and 90mm diameter discharge pipe. The total head loss is 50% of the velocity head a suction pipe. If pump runs at 360rpm, find the torque developed by the shaft of motor if pump efficiency is 76%. ANSWER: 5.4 KN-m
A hydroelectric power plant is being designed. The gross head from the reservoir to the tailrace is 1065 ft, and the volume flow rate of water through each turbine is 203,000 gpm at 70°F. There are 12 identical parallel turbines, each with an efficiency of 95.2 percent, and all other mechanical energy losses (through the penstock, etc.) are estimated to reduce the output by 3.5 percent. The generator itself has an efficiency of 94.5 percent. Estimate the electric power production from the plant in MW
A 6 in. pipe, as shown in the figure, takes water from a reservoir and terminates in a nozzle having a jet diameter of 2 in. Assuming a nozzle loss of 8 percent of the velocity head in the jet, compute the discharge (in S.I. units). Also, make a table showing the elevation head, velocity head, pressure head, and total head at each of the six stations. Lastly, draw the hydraulic gradient line (H.G.L.) & the energy gradient line (E.G.L.).
A pitot-static tube placed in the centre of a 300 mm pipe line has one orifice pointing upstream and other perpendicular to it. The mean velocity in the pipe is 0.80 of the central velocity Find the discharge through the pipe if the pressure difference between the two orifices 60 mm of water. Take the co-efficient of pitot tube as C, = 0.98.
A uniformly tapering pipe has 120mm and 80mm diameters at its ends. If the velocity of water at the larger end is 2m/s, find the discharge at the larger end and velocity head at the smaller end.

The below figure shows a pump that transfers a steady stream of 35◦API crude oil from an oiltanker to a refinery storage tank, both free surfaces being open to the atmosphere. Theeffective length—including fittings—of the commercial steel pipe is 6,000 ft. The dischargeat point 4 is 200 ft above the pump exit, which is level with the free surface of oil in thetanker. However, because of an intervening hill, point 3 is at a higher altitude than point 4.Losses between points 1 and 2 may be ignored.The crude oil has the following properties:Density ρ = 53 lbm/ft 3 ; Viscosity μ = 13.2 cP; Vapour Pressure Pv = 4.0 psia Answer the following questions:1. If the combination of pump and motor is 80% efficient, how much electrical power(kW) is needed to drive the pump?2. If, in order to avoid vapour lock, the pressure in the pipeline must always be above thevapor pressure of the crude oil, what is the maximum permissible elevation of point 3relative to point 4?3. If the flow in the pipeline…

A pump with an efficiency of 89.842 percent delivers water at a rate of 13.79 m3/s but with a leakage loss of 0.5 m3/s. The friction losses within the pump result in a 1 m head loss. What is the total dynamic head of the pump in meters if it has a mechanical efficiency of 98 percent?
