During the test of a Pelton wheel, the pressure at the end of the 6.10" diameter nozzle was 515 psig when the flow is 2,615 ft/min. The peripheral coefficient is 0.46, the turbine specific speed is 6.20 rpm, and the penstock diameter is 1.5 feet. If the mechanical efficiency is 86% and electrical efficiency is 85%, determine the diameter of wheel in feet.

water from reservoir is pumped over a hill through a pipe 90cm in diameter and a pressure of 200kpa is maintained at the summit where the pipe is 90 m above the reservoir. the quantity pumped is 1.40m/s and by reason of friction there is a head loss of 3 J/N between reservoir and summit. if the pump is 90% efficient, determine the input power of the pump
The pumping system below is used in a manufacturing process involving glycerin. Find the minimum pump head, E (P), required to prevent contamination of the piping system from reservoir B. the temperature of the glycerin is 60°F.

QUESTION 2 , (a) In a rare pipe system design, there is such a case whereas the minor losses is greater than major losses. Describe the case and explain the reason why minor losses value is more than major losses value. (b) Water at 35°C flows steadily in a 4 cm,diameter pipe at velocity of 3.5 cm/s. The head loss is 0.5 m. Calculate: i) the length of theuotual pipe, ii) the pressure loss, and iii) the pumping power required to overcome this pressure drop.

(a) Water at temperature of 20 °C is pumped from a reservoir to a large open surface storage tank through a piping system with diameter of 10 cm as shown in Figure Q1. A pump with pump head rise ha = 32 – 1 × 10°Q²,Q = is m? installed in this system. Besides, the pipe's fitting components installed in this piping system such as tee and long radius 90° elbows are flanged type. The total pipe length for the entire piping system from reservoir to storage tank is 48 m while the pipe length from reservoir to pump suction side is 8 m. The friction factor of the pipe in this system is estimated to be 0.02. The elevation difference between the reservoir and storage tank are estimated to be 18 m.
