A horizontal 150mm diameter pipe gradually reduces its section to 50mm diameter, subsequently, enlarging into 150mm section. The pressure in the 150-mm pipe at a point just before entering the reducing section is 140 kPa and in the 50mm section at the end of the reducer, the pressure is 70 kPa. If 600mm of head is lost between the points where the pressures are known, compute the rate of flow of water through the pipe.

29 REVIEW INNOVATIONS 2. A pipe 977 m long branches into 3 pipes at junction A. The three pipes span 1046 m, 885 m, and 796 m. They come together at junction B and continue as a single pipe for 1224 m. All pipes are 300 mm in size except the shortest one which is 250 mm. The pressure drop between the junctions is 260 kPa. Friction factor "f" can be assumed 0.02 in the entire system. Calculate the rates of flow in the branching pipes.
1. A pipe of diameter 1.1 ft narrows to a diameter of 0.8 ft. Air moves through the pipe at a mass flow rate of 6.1 slugs/sec. Recall 1 slug = 32.2 lbm. If at the larger diameter a pressure of 110 psig and a temperature of 75 °F exist, compute the pressure, velocity, density and temperature in the smaller cross-section. Ans.

A pump draws water from a reservoir A and lifts it to reservoir B as shown. The loss of head from A and lifts it to reservoir B as shown. The loss of head from A to (1) is 5 times the velocity head in the 12-inch pipe and the loss of head from (2) to B is 23 times the velocity head in the 7-inch pipe. Compute the pressure heads (2) in ft when the discharge is 447 gpm. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
