Chapter 18, Problem 18.27PP

Specify a size of Schedule 40 steel pipe suitable for carrying 800 cfm (free air) to a reactor vessel in a chemical processing plant in which the pressure must be at least 100 psig at 70 F . The total length of pipe from the compressor to the reactor vessel is 350 ft. The line contains eight standard elbows, two fully open gate valves, and one swing-type check valve. After completing the design, determine the required pressure at the compressor.

Water is being pumped (at Q) from a reservoir to a nearby storage facility for a local farm. Thewater level in the reservoir varies throughout the year. When it is considered “full” the change inelevation from the top of the water line to the centerline of the pipe at (2) is h. The pipe is madeof welded steel. Assuming there are both major and minor losses, determine the pressure in thepipe at (2).Clearly state the source(s) of minor losses.Use the Haaland and Darcy-Weisbach equations.Flowrate (Q), elevation difference (h), head from pump (hp), pipe length (L), and diameter (D)are given below. State all assumptions. Q =0.54 m^3/s, h =3.5 m, h_p=47.5 m, L = 23.33 m, D = 0.467m
Determine the friction factor “f “ for a 40 mm ID cast iron pipe handling 400 L/min of water using the Moody Chart
The pump delivers water from the lower to the upper reservoir at the rate of 2.0 ft. The head loss S between the suction pipe inlet and the pump is 6ft and that between the pump outlet and the upper reservoir IS 12ft. Both pipes 6 inches Schedule 40 steel pipe. Calculate a)The pressure at the pump inlet in Psi,b) The pressure at the pump outlet in Psi,c) The total head on the pump in ft, andd) The power delivered by the pump to the water in Hp
