A municipality wants to determine the flow rate into the plant based on pipe size, elevation difference, and assumed roughness, for the water supply reservoir is shown in the figure below. The pipe is an old 4-inch diameter Cast Iron with a Hazen Roughness coefficient of 100 & 223 feet long. The difference in elevation is 62 feet. The pipe has a strainer at the entrance (k-1.9), a valve (k=8.6), a check valve (k-2:7) and 3- 90° bends (-0.83). The flow exits into a receiving pond at the WTP. Provide the flow rate in Gallons per Minute. WTP Az

The existing configuration for a water distribution system is presently considered inefficient. A secondary pipe was laid to accommodate a new development which fell through. You are asked to evaluate the possibility to replace the entirety of the pipes from figure 3 between points A and C by only 1 equivalent pipe. The capacity and head loss must be the same for this new pipe. Experimental gages installed within the pipes let you know that the head loss in pipe #3 is 3m. You can neglect singular head loss. A Figure 3 f₁ = 0.02 D₁ = 0.15 m 4₁ = 600 m 1 B f₂ = 0.018 D₂ = 0.10 m L₂ = 600 m f3 = 0.02 D3 = 0.15 m L3 = 400 m 3 2 C
The figure illustrates a piping system with three tanks. Determine the flow rate of each pipe using the method taught in class. For each pipe the diameters and lengths are in meters. D1 = 1m L1 = 1000mD2 = 0.5m L2 = 900mD3 = 0.75m L3 = 1200mConsider the roughness e = 0.0003 m and kinematic viscosity of 1.31 x 10^-6 m^2/s
Using the Hazen-Williams nomograph determine the following: a. The head loss as 5.6 liters/s of water flows through a 24.38 m length of 64 mm cast iron watermain pipe. b. The diameter of cast iron pipe that can carry 19 liters/s over a length of 366 m with no morethan a 3 m head loss. c. Compare the head loss that would result from the flow of 6.5 liters/s of water through 305 m ofcast iron pipe for 50 mm and 75 mm diameter pipe sizes.
Problem 2 The figure below shows a new cast-iron pipeline that connects two reservoirs. The upstream reservoir is at an elevation of 1000 ft (assume this is 1000.00 ft). The flowrate in the system from the upstream reservoir to the downstream reservoir is 5 cfs. Assume the water temperature is 50 °F. The pipe length from the first reservoir to the globe valve is 300 ft, the pipe length from the globe valve to the enlargement is 700 ft. (a) Using the Darcy Weisbach equation for pipe friction head loss, find the elevation of the downstream reservoir. Account for minor losses. Also tabulate the total head at each of the following locations along the pipeline: A just after the sharp-edged pipe entrance, B before the globe valve, C after the globe valve, D before the enlargement, E after the enlargement, F before the pipe exit. Calculate all values with a lot of precision because cumulative round-off errors can add up, but report all head values to the nearest 0.01 ft. Submit a clearly…

In a dyehouse, the water flow rate passing through a pipe with radius r is Q = 0.05 m3 / s and its density is ρ = 1000 kg / m3. The pipe friction coefficient is Cf = 0.0075 and the local loss coefficient is K = 10. Pressure drop in the pipe; LaTeX: \ Delta P = \ rho \ left (2Cf \ ast \ frac {L} (r} + K \ right) \ frac (V ^ 2} (2) ΔP = ρ (2Cf * Lr + K) V22 where the water velocity in the pipe can be calculated with V = Q / (r2). What should be the radius of the pipe so that the pressure drop that will occur in a pipe of L = 100 m length does not exceed =P = 200 000 N / m2? State the tolerance value provided by the result you found.

The copper tubing has an estimated f=0.02, and local head losses are created by the corporation stop (C-stop), three bends, and the faucet itself. The faucet exit has a diameter of 12 mm.

A smooth concrete pipe with a 1.5 ft diameter carries carbon tetrachloride at 20 C from a tank to a facility 1 mile away, where it discharges into the air. The pipe begins in the tank 3 feet below the surface and descends on a 1:100 (vertical: horizontal) slope. Determine the flow rate, assuming minor losses are negligible.
