8-89 Water at 15°C is drained from a large reservoir using two horizontal plastic pipes connected in series. The first pipe is 20 m long and has a 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. The pipe entrance is sharp-edged, and the contraction between the two pipes is sudden. Neglecting the effect of the kinetic energy correction factor, determine the discharge rate of water from the reservoir.

A pump draws water from a large open sump through a short length of the suction pipe. The water is delivered through a 21.1 m length of 9 cm diameter pipe and via a submerged exit into an open tank. A control valve is installed in the delivery pipe, for which f = 0.0085. Dissipation other than friction and the loss at the valve may be ignored. The bottom of the tank is 10 m above the free surface of the water in the sump. What power will be required in kW if the water will be delivered to 1.5m above the pump?

SITUATION 4: Water is drained from a large reservoir using two horizontal pipes connected in series. The first pipe is 20 m long and has a 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 center line of the pipe.
