Water flows from a large reservoir down a straight pipe of 2500 m length and 0.2 m diameter. At the end of the pipe, at a point 500 m below the surface of the reservoir, the water exits to atmosphere with a velocity Ve. If the friction factor for the pipe is 0.03, and the loss coefficient for the pipe entrance is 1.0, calculate Ve.
A horizontal pipe line 40 m long is connected to a water tank at one end and discharges freely into the atmosphere at the other end. For the first 25 m of its length from the tank, the pipe is 150 mm diameter and its diameter are suddenly enlarged to 300 mm. The height of water level in the tank is 8m above the centre of the pipe. Considering all losses of head which occur,determine the rate of flow. Take f = 0.01 for both sections of the pipe.
The horizontal pipe length is 180 m and the vertical pipe length is 24 m in the fire protection system, which is formed with a water tower and pipeline, 1 threaded 90 ° elbow (Kd = 0.9) on the pipeline and 1 slide valve at the pipe outlet (fully open position Kv = 0.2). Since the pipe material is cast iron and its diameter is 4 ”(101.6 mm), determine the maximum flow rate in the pipe considering the losses. Assume that the water level in the tower remains constant and the kinematic viscosity of the water is 1.124x10-6 m2 / s. Show your readings by drawing on the attached Moody diagram.
A pump is fitted to 100 m pipeline that connects reservoir A reservoir B. The diameter of the pipe is 200 mm and is characterized by a fri factor of 0.02. The design discharge is 0.15 m³/s and the pump. Assuming th minor losses are 20% of friction losses, determine the head the pump must p
Water (ρ=998 kg/m³, μ=1.02x10^-3 kg/ms) flows through a 598 m length of pipe with 150 mm in diameter at 60 L/s. Determine the pipe roughness, ɛ if the head loss is 49 m.
Question 2A large vat contains water, which contains a drainage pipe at a height h1, as shown infigure 2. The drainage pipe has a length L. = 0.4 m, and a radius R = 15 mm, and releaseswater to the atmosphere at a flow rate Q. The connection between the pipe and the vatwall has a loss coefficient of KL = 0.8.Point A is in the middle of the tank at a height, hi.You can assume that the flow in the drainage pipe is fully developed and laminar. The density of water is p = 1000 kg/m° and the viscosity is u = 1 mPa.s. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s? a) Find an expression for the pressure at point A.b) Find an expression in terms of Q, L, d, K, p and u for the pressure losses along the pipe (including the losses at the inlet and exit).c) If the flowrate out of the drainage tank is Q = 50 L/min, find ho. You may assumeany change of ho with time is negligible.
A water fountain is to be installed at a remote location by attaching a cast iron pipe directly to a water main through which water is flowing at 70°F and 60 psig. The entrance to the pipe is sharp-edged, and the 70-ft-long piping system involves three 90° miter bends without vanes, a fully open gate valve, and an angle valve with a loss coefficient of 5 when fully open. If the system is to provide water at a rate of 15 gal/min and the elevation difference between the pipe and the fountain is negligible, determine the minimum diameter of the piping system.
Water flows through the galvanized iron pipe system whose diameter is 0.75 inches and flow rate is 0.020 cfs. Do you agree with the fact that friction losses in the straight parts of the piping system are negligible with respect to losses to fittings?
Flowrate of water through bend pipe (90o) is 0.21 m3/s. The pipe diameter at the inlet is 150 mm andthe outlet diameter is 75 mm. The outlet is higher than the inlet by 2 m. Frictional losses in the pipe isequal a loss factor of 0.5 applied to the inlet velocity head. The pressure head at the inlet is 8.6 m andthe volume of water in the bend is 0.6 m3. Calculate the resultant force and its direction.
To conserve water and energy, a flow reducer is installed on the neck of a shower. If the pressure point at (1) remains constant and all losses are negligible (except that of the flow reducer), determine the value of the flow reducer's loss coefficient if it reduces the flow rate by a factor of 2. Despise gravity.
For fully developed laminar pipe flow, if the diameter of the pipe is decreased by a factor of 3 whereas the length of pipe and flow rate is kept fixed the head loss will …………. Please fill the blank with correct answer.
A pipe of 0.25 m diameter carries water at the rate of 7.2 m3/s.The pressure head at the entry of the venturimeter, used to measure the flow rate in the pipe, is equivalent to 6 m of water. If the pressure head at the throat is zero, calculate the throat diameter of the venturi.Include fbd.
