1. A large reservoir is used as a water supply for a community. A portion of the water supply system is shown schematically below. The water flows from the reservoir to a large storage tank before going from there to the water treatment plant. The pipeline from C to D consists of a rounded - edge entrance (K = 0.04), 914m of cast iron pipe with a diameter of 610mm, three gate valves (K = 0.19), four 45° elbows (K=0.42) and two 90° elbows (K=1.0). Between F and G there are 914m of cast iron pipe with a diameter of 610mm, two gate valves (K=0.19), and four 90° elbows (K=1.0). The friction factor for the pipeline is 0.017. The system is designed to provide a flow rate of 1890 lit/s with water at a temperature of 26.7°C. Determine the minimum and maximum gage pressure in the pipeline.

Question

Transcribed Image Text:1. A large reservoir is used as a water supply for a community. A portion of the water
supply system is shown schematically below. The water flows from the reservoir to a
large storage tank before going from there to the water treatment plant. The pipeline
from C to D consists of a rounded - edge entrance (K = 0.04), 914m of cast iron pipe
with a diameter of 610mm, three gate valves (K = 0.19), four 45° elbows (K=0.42) and
two 90° elbows (K=1.0). Between F and G there are 914m of cast iron pipe with a
diameter of 610mm, two gate valves (K=0.19), and four 90° elbows (K=1.0). The friction
factor for the pipeline is 0.017. The system is designed to provide a flow rate of 1890
lit/s with water at a temperature of 26.7°C. Determine the minimum and maximum
gage pressure in the pipeline.
