1. A siphon has an uniform circular section of 70 mm diameter and consists of a bent pipe with its crest 1.6 m above the water level as shown in figure. The siphon discharges into the atmosphere at a level 3.0 m below the water level. Calculate the velocity of flow and the discharge. The absolute pressure at the end of the siphon is equivalent to 10 m head of water. Calculate the absolute pressure at the crest. Neglect all losses.

For the system shown below, calculate the vertical distance (in meters) between the surfaces of the two reservoirs when water at 10°C flows from A to B at the rate of 0.03 m3/s. The elbows are standard. The inlet is inward projecting, and the exit is square edged. The total length of the 4-in pipe is 94 m. For the 6-in pipe it is 274 m.
The task is to to transfer the fluid from the source towards the tank (TANK A) lying on an elevated platform as shown. The goal is to fill up that 16.49 m by 2.23 m by 6.36 m tank (TANK A) within 11.5 mins (from empty to full). Your budget is limited to 605,000 pesos. Head loss on pipe due to friction is 1.23 meters per 1 meter of pipe. Because it's Fluid Machinery and not Engineering Economics, it's ok for your design to exceed the budget BUT YOU HAVE TO JUSTIFY IT.
Water flows in a pipe of 1-in. diameter at a temperature of 70°F. The pressure values at points 1 and 2 are found to be 20 psi and 25 psi, respectively. The elevation of point 1 is 12 feet, and the elevation of point 2 is 0 feet. There is 15 feet of pipe between the two points. a. Determine the direction of flow. b. What is the minimum discharge above which the flow will not be laminar?
As part of a processing of biofuels, water is pumped into a circular tank with a diameter Dt, as shown in Figure Q3. The flowrate into the tank is Q1 and the flowrate out is Q2. When the vessel is heated, water evaporates. The average velocity at which the vapour rises across the entire tank is vevap. You may assume that water has a density of pw, and vapour has a density of pu. Acceleration due to gravity is g. a) Find an expression for the rate of change of the mass of water in the tank. b) At time t = 0, the height of water in the tank is 10. Find an expression for the height as a function of time, h(t). c) An alarm is triggered when the pressure at the bottom of the tank exceeds palarm. Find an expression for the time at which the alarm goes off. Q₁ Vevap 2₂ D₁ Figure Q3: Water being pumped through a heated evaporation tank.

6.5 BELLOWS 6100mm The horizontal elbow is joined by bellows to the rest of the piping system and it transports water. Determine the X and Y components of the force needed to keep the elbov in posi- tion. The pressure at A and B is 200 kPa, the flow rate is 30 L/s and the pipe diameter is 100 mm. 6.6 Water flows at a rate of 0,055 m³/s through a piping system and then issues from the pipe of 50 mm diameter into the atmosphere. Ø150mm Ø50mm Ignore losses in the pipe and determine the force required at the flange to keep the nozzle in position. (Hint: first determine the pressure at A with Bernoulli's equation.)
Calculate the flow rate of the system by accepting the fluid passing through the reservoir-pipe system shown in the figure as ideal. As D1 = 0.5 m, D2 = 0.30 m and D3 = 0.40 m, determine the velocity heights in each pipe. Calculate and show the water levels in the pressure gauge pipes (it will be taken into account that the pressure gauge pipes are externally connected to the 1st and 2nd pipes, but the end of the pressure gauge pipe on the 3rd pipe is turned to the flow direction). Draw the relative energy and relative piezometer lines of the system.
