Assume that friction in the suction line is negligible. Toluene @ 35C is pumped from an open reservoir to a tank kept at a gauge pressure of 150 kPa. The pump itself is 3 m below the reservoir, while the discharge tank is 10m above the reservoir. While in the discharge line the friction head amounts to 7.5 m, determine the net positive suction head available for the pump. If the pump has an efficiency of 65%, determine the total power input. At the given temp, the density and vapor pressure of toluene are 862 kg/m3 and 40 mmHg.
Water is pumped from a reservoir to a tank with a lift of 20.0 ft. The suction pipe, which connects the reservoir to the pump, has a 12in diameter and is 25ft long. The discharge pipe, which connects the pump to the tank, has a 10in diameter and is 450ft long. Both pipes may be classified as clean, smooth cast iron pipes. The suction pipe projects into the reservoir and discharge pipe projects into the tank. Considering all losses, calculate the horsepower required to operate the pump to discharge 1346 gpm into the tank.
Question 1: Water is expelled by a jet to the environment (i.e. the water flow is surrounded by atmospheric pressure). To change the direction of the water flow, this enters to a curved pipe as show in the figure (top view perspective). Calculate the forces exerted by the flow to the pipe in x and y direction (both horizontal). Use a water density of 1000 kg/m³, Q=1 m³/s, diameter d-0.3 m. Follow the 4 steps explained in the lectures and state your assumptions clearly. 30 Question 2: Repeat question 1 but change the curvature from 30 degrees to 90 degrees. How the forces change? 90
A pipeline of 50 mm diameter and 4.5 km length connects two reservoirs whose constant difference of water level is 12 m. A branch pipe 1.25 km long and taken from a point distance of 1.5 km from reservoir A, leads to reservoir C whose water level is 15 m below that of reservoir A. Find the diameter of the branch pipe so that the flow into both the reservoirs is the same. Assume the coefficient of friction for each pipe, f = 0.0075, and neglect minor losses.
Water flows steadily into the Venturi tube in the following figure. In the section considered, negligible friction losses and uniform properties in the sections are assumed. The entrance area (A1) is 20 cm2, while the throat area is A2 = 10 cm2. A pressure gauge whose manometric fluid is mercury (Yhg = 136,000 N / m3) is connected between the inlet sections and the throat, as seen in the figure. The flow of water that flows through the Venturi tube is requested (γH2O = 10,000 N / m3. Answer .: ϕ = 5.8 L / s.
