Two identical centrifugal pumps connected in series are used to pump water between two storage tanks that are open to the atmosphere, through a cylindrical pipe with ID of 0.1 m on both the discharge and suction side. The total equivalent length on the suction and discharge sides are 20m and 40m respectively. The change in static head is 7m.

Assume the friction factor f to be 0.02 and is constant throughout the range of flowrates.
a) Determine the operating point of the system.
b) Determine the power requirement for the pumping system if the pump efficiency is 75%.
A Francis radial-flow hydroturbine has the following dimensions, where location 2 is the inlet and location 1 is the outlet: r2 = 2.00 m, r1 = 1.30 m, b2 = 0.85 m, and b1 = 2.10 m. The runner blade angles are ?2 = 71.4° and ?1 = 15.3° at the turbine inlet and outlet, respectively. The runner rotates at n. = 160 rpm. The volume flow rate at design conditions is 80.0 m3/s. Irreversible losses are neglected in this preliminary analysis. Calculate the angle ?2 through which the wicket gates should turn the flow, where ?2 is measured from the radial direction at the runner inlet. Calculate the swirl angle ?1, where ?1 is measured from the radial direction at the runner outlet. Does this turbine have forward or reverse swirl? Predict the power output (MW) and required net head (m).
Water at 16,2°C is to be discharged from a reservoir at a rate of 16,2 L/s using two horizontal cast iron (roughness value ɛ=0.00026m) pipes connected in series and a pump between them. The first pipe is 26,2 m long and has a 66,2 mm diameter, while the second pipe is 36,2 m long and has a 46,2 mm diameter. The water level in the reservoir is 30 m above the centerline of the pipe. The pipe entrance is sharp-edged (KL=0.562), and losses associated with the connection of the pump are negligible. Neglecting the effect of the kinetic energy correction factor, determine the required pumping head, the minimum pumping power and electric motor power for total efficiency value of 76,2% to maintain the indicated flow rate. Water density is r=996,2 kg/m3, dynamic viscosity µ= 1.162x10-3kg/ms. Solve the problem by making the necessary assumptions and drawing the schematic figure.
