- 04: Three pipes of diameters 300 mm, 200 mm and 400 mm and lengths 450 m, 255 m and 315 m, respectively, are connected in series. The difference in water surface levels in two tanks is 18 m. Determine the rate of water flow if coefficients of friction are 0.0075, 0.0078 and 0.0072, respectively, considering: (a) with minor losses, (b) without (neglecting) ‘minor losses.arrow_forwardThe velocities of flow in a 1 m diameter pipe are 6 m/s on the centerline and 4.85 m/s at x=100 mm. Determine dischargearrow_forwardQuestion 8 Two reservoirs are connected by a pipe whose total length is 360m.From the upper reservoir the pipe is 300mm in diameterfor a length of 150m and the remaining 210m is 450mm in diameter.The difference in water levels between the two reservoirs are 8m.Take f=0.006 for the smaller pipe and f=0.005 for the larger pipe.If all the changes in pipe sections are sharp and sudden, calculate the flow rate which can be delivered.arrow_forward
- Assumptions of a discharge and a friction head loss through the series of pipe and the parallel of pipe are different. For pipes in series, the total discharge equals to the individual discharge in each pipe. For pipes in parallel, the total friction head loss equals to the individual friction head loss in each pipe. True or falsearrow_forward1 - If the pipeline is now specified to be of Schedule 40 with a nominal diameter of 6 in., and the available pressure at the pump exit is P2 = 132.7 psig, what flow rate Q (gpm) can be expected? Answer the following additional questions: 2 -If the combination of pump and motor is 80% efficient, how much electrical power (kW) is needed to drive the pump? 3 -, in order to avoid vapour lock, the pressure in the pipeline must always be above the vapor pressure of the crude oil, what is the maximum permissible elevation of point 3 relative to point 4? 4 -If the flow in the pipeline were at the upper limit of being laminar, what pump exit pressure would then be needed? (Answer this part without using the friction factor plot.arrow_forward10.) A horizontal pipe gradually reduces from 300 mm diameter section to 100 mm diameter section. The pressure at the 300 mm section is 100 kPa and at the 100 mm section is 70 kPa. If the flow rate is 15 liters/sec of water, compute the head lost between the two sections.

- PROBLEM 1: Water flows upwards in a vertical pipeline of gradually varying section from point 1 to point 2, which is 1.5m above point 1, at the rate of 0.9m^3/s. At section 1 the pipe diameter is 0.5m and pressure is 800 kPa. If pressure at section 2 is 600 kPa, determine the pipe diameter at that location. Neglect losses.arrow_forwardFor the Pipe shown Q=4250 gallons per minute (gpm), P1=132 kPa and P2 = 211 kPa. If the pipe carries a special fluid of SG=1.2, determine the total head lost.arrow_forwardA horizontal 154 mm diameter pipe gradually reduces its section to 53 diameter, subsequently enlarging into 154 mm section. The pressure in the 154-mm pipe at a point just before entering the reducing section is 141 kPa and in the 53 mm section at the end of the reducer, the pressure is 73 kPa. If 627 mm of head is lost between the points where the pressure are known compute the rate of flow in L/s of water through the pipe.arrow_forward
