1. A water from Agno River is pumped at 13.3 L/s using a submerged pump at an efficiency of 78% that is discharged to a swimming pool in Itogon which has a free surface of 30 m above the Agno River water level. The pipe that was used has a diameter of 7 cm on the suction line and 5 cm on the discharge line from the pump. Assuming that the elevation difference between the pump inlet and outlet and the effect of the kinetic energy correction factors and frictional losses in piping are negligible, calculate for the following a) Power requirement by the pump in kW b) Pressure difference across the pump c) Pumping cost/day(24 hour) if the electricity cost is P2.00/kW-hr

A small, pumped storage scheme is used to pump water to a reservoir during the night and to generate power during peak demand times in the late afternoon. The pumped storage scheme consists of a pump and an impulse turbine as shown in the figure below. 4.1 The reservoir is initially to be filled with the pump which can deliver a constant head of 36 m water. Determine the time it will take to fill the reservoir. 4.2 The reservoir is to be drained for maintenance purposes by disconnecting it from the pump and turbine. Calculate the time that it will take to drain the reservoir. 4.3 Calculate the flowrate at the pipe outlet to the impulse turbine when the water level in the reservoir is kept constant. 4.4 Calculate the head loss against friction and the hydraulic power available for case 1.3 above.

A reservoir is at effective height of 95m. An irreversible pump is used to pump a mass flow of 4500 kg/s of water from ground level into the reservoir. Consider water as an incompressible liquid with mass density of 1000kg/m . 1) What is the power consumption of pump for an isentropic pump efficiency of 82%? 2) What is the power that can be recovered from a turbine with 93%? (with the same mass flow and height). 3)What is the change in temperature of the pumped water?
Water from a pressurized tank enters a horizontal pipe at a velocity of 2.5 m/s and 12 kPag. At the other end of the tank, a nozzle is connected which discharges the water to an empty tank that is open to the atmosphere. What is the velocity of the water in m/s just as it exits the nozzle?
(b) Water is drained from a large reservoir using two horizontal pipes connected in series as shown in Figure Q3(b). The first pipe is 20 m long with 10 cm diameter, while the second pipe is 35 m long and has a 4 cm diameter. The water level in the reservoir is 18 m above the centerline of the pipe. Table Q3(b) shows the friction factor and loss coefficient for each pipe or fittings. Determine the velocity at the second pipe, discharge rate of water and the total head loss.

A flow rate of 3 m'/s of water is available at a height of I 10 m at a project site. Due to losses in the sup- ply line, the head available at the inlet to powerhouse is estimated to be only 101 m of water. The leakage losses in the powerhouse are negligible. Mechanical losses account for 150 kW. Frictional losses in the rotor blades may be taken as 250 kW. The exit velocity of water from the turbines is 4.5 m/s. Calculate the hydraulic, mechanical, and overall efficiencies of the plant. The specific weight of water may be taken as 9810 N/m.

A steady stream of n-butanol is needed to be fed into the reactor at 40 ̊C. However, the inlet of the reactor is located 7.5 m above the reservoir tank. As such, a highly effective centrifugal pump (70% efficiency) is used for such a purpose. It was understood that the needed volumetric flow rate into the reactor is fixed at 20 m3/h. It was also noted that the n-butanol reservoir is closed but not pressurized, while the gauge pressure at the endof the discharge line is measured at 275 kPa. Given that the density of n-butanol is 810kg/m3. If the discharge pipeline was 5 cm in diameter, calculate: (i) The velocity of n-butanol at the discharge line. (ii) The total power input from the centrifugal pump. (iii) The power delivered to the n-butanol fluid.
A power plant,having a Carnot efficiency, produces 1.00GW of electrical power from turbines that take in steam at 500K and reject water at 300K into a flowing river. the water downstream is warmer by delta T due to the output of the power plant. Determine the flow rate of the river.
The capacity of a certain pump is 5251 gallons per hour with a capacity of 68.54%. A city uses this pump to extract water from a water supply from a body of water where in the intake is 10.2 ft below the surface of the body of water. A 3-in S40 is used to transfer the water through a pipe with a total length of 8848 ft having a total friction loss of 222.7 (ft-lbf)/lbm. Given that the cost electrical power is 14.7 cents/kWh, what is the hourly pumping cost in cents per hour? Note that in this problem, the inlet to the pump is 35.7 ft above the surface of the body of water while the water level in the tank discharge is always 380 ft above the pump discharge Answer options: 700 557 1175 685 226
