A Francis turbine is installed with a vertical draft tube. The top of the draft is 1.0 m below thecenter line of spiral casing while the tail race water level is 3.0 m from the top of the draft tube. There is no velocity of whirl at the top or bottom of the draft tube and leakage are negligible. Theelevation of water from the reservoir to the center line of the turbine spiral casing is 50 m, and watervelocity at the inlet is 5 m/sec. Discharge is 2.5 cu.m/sec, hydraulic efficiency is 86%, overallefficiency of 83%. Determine the reading of a pressure gage (in psi) if one is installed at thepenstock just before the water inlet to the turbine.

The owners of a smallholding water their vegetable garden using collected rainwater from atank. Thetankhasadiameterofbm,itisam tall and sits on a 6 m tall stand. The inner diameter of the hose is c cm, and the hose is (20 +5d) m long. If the tank was initially filled to the brim, how long will it take before the tank is empty? Assume that there is a single ball valve (K = 0.05) in the line, and that the spray nozzle has a hole diameter that is 20 % of the diameter of the hose. You may ignore all other losses in the nozzle. a = 9 b = 8 c = 7 d = 1 Hint: Use an Excel spreadsheet or C program for the calculations.
Water is pumped from a reservoir to a pressurized storage tank (P = 150 kPa gauge) atop a building by means of a centrifugal pump. There is a 70-m difference in elevation between the water surface in the reservoir and the end of the discharge line. The piping system consists of 80m of 5" SCH 40 steel pipe containing two 90o elbows, one gate valve, one rotary water meter, and six couplings from the reservoir to the pump; 3" SCH 40 steel pipe for 86m to the tank. The 3" pipe contains two gate valves, four 90o elbows, and ten couplings. It is desired to maintain a flow of water into the tank of 2.4 m3/min. Water temperature is 25oC.
