Sediment transport

Sediment transport or Soil transport is the movement of solid particles, usually due to the combination of gravitational forces acting on the sediment, and the movement of the liquid at which the sediment enters. Soil erosion occurs in natural systems where the particles are sandstones (sand, rocks), mud, or clay; the liquid is air, water, or ice; and the gravitational force that works to move particles to the landing surface. Sediment transportation or soil migration due to the movement of liquids occurs in rivers, lakes, lakes, oceans, and other bodies of water as a result of currents and waves. Transportation is also caused by glaciers as they flow, and to places on earth under the influence of wind. Soil erosion due to gravity alone is possible in most sloping areas, including hills, scarves, cliffs, and the continental shelf — the continental boundary of the slope.

Consider that water is pumped a distance equal to the last three digits of 917551848 in kilometer from a reservoir (Reservoir A) at mean sea level elevation to a second reservoir (Reservoir B) at elevation 50 ft. above mean sea level. The pipeline connecting the reservoirs has a diameter of 60 in and is constructed of concrete with an absolute roughness of 0.003. If the flow is equal to 917551848 in liter per week and the efficiency of the pumping station is 75%, what will be the monthly power bill if electricity costs is the same as the highest rate of the electricity provider of your community in cents/kwh?
2. In a water supply scheme to be designed for serving a population of 400000, the storage reservoir is situated at 8 km away from the city and the loss of head from the source to the city is 16 m. Calculate the size of the supply main using Weisbach formula as well as by using Hazen's formula assuming a maximum daily demand of 200 /c/d and half of the daily supply to be pumped in 8 hours. Assume the coefficient of friction for the pipe material as 0.012 in Weisbach formula, and CH 130 in Hazen's formula %3D
A public utility is trying to decide between two different sizes of pipe for a new water main. A 250-mm line will have an initial cost of P1,600,000, whereas a 300-mm line will cost P1,840,000. Since there is more head loss through the 250-mm pipe, the pumping cost for the smaller line is expected to be P100,000 per year more than for the 300-mm line. If the pipes are expected to last for 15 years, which size should be selected if the interest rate is 12% semi-annually? Use AW, PW, and FW methods in your solution analysis.
The water needs of a small farm are to be met by pumping water from a well that can supply water continuously at a rate of 5 L/s. The water level in the well is 20 m below the ground level, and water is to be pumped to a large tank on a hill, which is 58 m above the ground level of the well, using 6-cm internal diameter plastic pipes. The required length of piping is measured to be 510 m, and the total minor loss coefficient due to the use of elbows, vanes, etc. is estimated to be 12. Taking the efficiency of the pump to be 75 percent, determine the rated power of the pump that needs to be purchased, in kW. The density and viscosity of water at anticipated operation conditions are taken to be 1000 kg/m3 and 0.00131 kg/m⋅s, respectively. Is it wise to purchase a suitable pump that meets the total power requirements, or is it necessary to also pay particular attention to the large elevation head in this case? Explain.
