Question 7 (Parallel pipes) Two reservoirs are connected by two parallel pipelines with diameters of 0.8m and 0.6m as shown in Figure 8. The pipelines are both 3 km long with a value of 0.03. The combine discharge through the pipelines must be at least. Pipe 2 Pipe 1 Figure 8 a) When the total discharge is, what is the flow rate in the individual pipeline? b) What is the minimum difference in the elevation of the surface water level in the two reservoirs required to maintain a flow of through the pipelines?
As shown in the Google Maps, a 12-inch PVC pipeline (f = 0.019) will be constructed to provide water from the Pomona Water Reclamation Plant (PWRP) to Cal Poly Pomona campus. The pipeline is meant to deliver 2550 gal/min to the proposed development. The total length of this pipeline is 2.34 miles. The elevations at the beginning point and the ending point are 348 feet and 365 feet, respectively. At PWRP, there is a half-open gate valve for water supply shortly after the flow enters the pipeline through the entrance (r/d = 0). Along the pipeline, smooth bends (with vanes, r/d = 8) were utilized to alter flow direction. At each fire hydrant (FH) location, a tee is installed to create a lateral to the fire hydrant. How much residual pressure should be there at the beginning point to ensure the minimum residual pressure of 30 psi at the ending point of this pipeline? Assume a = 1.0 at all locations; temperature is 15°C. Hint: Compute the pipeline velocity, unit head loss, and the residual…

At a particular time, the storage in a reach of the Truckee River is 55.3 acre-ft. At that instant, the inflow into the reach is 375 cfs and the outflow is 563 cfs. After 2 hours, the inflow and outflow are 600 cfs and 675 cfs, respectively. (Hint: you will need to estimate the average inflow and outflow rates to complete the problem) • Determine the change in storage volume during the 2 hours. • Determine the stored volume after 2 hours.
A confined aquifer has a transmissivity, T, of 30 m2/day and a storage coefficient, S, of 0.0008. A production well of radius, r, 0.2 m is pumped at 200 litres/min for 4 days and shut off. Calculate the maximum drawdown and the drawdown 10 days after the start of pumping at the well. Note: Calculate the result rounded to the second digit after the decimal point. Hint: Cooper-Jacobs Solution is valid for u<0.01: In 2.25Tt p2 S S = 47T
While planning a future expansion, a water distribution pipe will be replaced as shown in Figure 2. The current plan is for the new configuration to have the same head-loss between points A and B once the new pipes are laid. Considering that the physical characteristics of these new pipes will be identical to the previously laid pipe (L, D, CHW), (A) what will the new operational flow be? After years of wear and tear while operating above the required flow, the pipes have prematurely degraded. The Hazen-Williams coefficients have dropped to: CHW₁= 130, CHW2= 135, CHW3= 125. You must now (B) quantify the head-loss between points A and B for an operational flow of 200 l/s.

Hello can you help me answer the following question? Thank you The local municipality wants to use this well (the pumping well) as an irrigation water supply well and would like to pump the well at 2000 gal/min. There is a house (Jenny’s) on a well 210 ft away. This pumping would occur in the dry season (assume no recharge) of June, July and August. What would be the drawdown on Jenny’s Well by the end of August. Transmissivity T = 1746.76 gal/min/ft Hydraulic conductivity = 11.645 gal/min/ft2 Storativity = 0.809
The X-Y Power Co. built a power dam. The company agreed to limit the level of the impounded water to elevation + 520 feet. During an unusual spring thaw and rain, the spillway jammed with ice, and the water rose to elevation + 529 feet, flooding several houses. The owners of these houses sued the company for damages caused by this flooding. What do you think of their rights in this situation? And explain in contracting point of view.
