MECH 2202 – Heat and Flow Engineering Principles. Winter 2023 Assignment 3 (Due March 22 nd ) All problems in this set are with the assumption that head losses are considerable. 1) The reservoirs in the Figure contain water at 20°C. If the pipe is smooth with L=4500 m and D = 4 cm, what will the flow rate in m 3 /h be for z = 100 m? This question is designed to help you achieve Learning Outcomes 1, 3, and 5 2) For the same system of question 1, let z = 80 m and L = 185 m of cast-iron pipe. What is the pipe diameter for which the flow rate will be 7 m 3 /h? This question is designed to help you achieve Learning Outcomes 1, 3, and 5 3) The system in the Figure consists of 1200 m of 5 cm cast-iron pipe, two 45° and four 90° flanged long-radius elbows, a fully open flanged globe valve, and a sharp exit into a reservoir. If the elevation at point 1 is 400 m, what gage pressure is required at point 1 to deliver 0.005 m 3 /s of water at 20°C into the reservoir? This question is designed to help you achieve Learning Outcomes 1, 3, and 5 4) The water pump in the Figure maintains a pressure of 6.5 psig at point 1. There is a filter, a half-open disk valve, and two regular screwed elbows. There are 80 ft of 4-inch diameter commercial steel pipe. (a) If the flow rate is 0.4 ft 3 /s, what is the loss coefficient of the filter? (b) If the disk valve is wide open and K filter = 7, what is the resulting flow rate? Page 1 of 2
MECH 2202 – Heat and Flow Engineering Principles. Winter 2023 This question is designed to help you achieve Learning Outcomes 1, 3, and 5 5) In the Figure below there are 125 ft of 2-in pipe, 75 ft of 6-in pipe, and 150 ft of 3-in pipe, all cast iron. There are three 90° elbows and an open globe valve, all flanged. If the exit elevation is zero, what horsepower is extracted by the turbine when the flow rate is 0.16 ft 3 /s of water at 20°C? This question is designed to help you achieve Learning Outcomes 1, 3, and 5 Page 2 of 2
