A Pelton wheel has a mean bucket speed of 10 m/sec with a jet of water flowing at the rate of 0.7 m³/sec under a head of 30 m. The bucket deflects the jet through an angle of 160°. Calculate power given by water to the runner and the hydraulic efficiency of the turbine. Assume efficiency of the nozzle as 0.98.

14. Water is pumped from one tank to another through a 0.100 m smooth plastic tube. The flow rate is 0.200 m³/s. The head loss due to major and minor friction losses is given by the equation, h₁ = 12.0 2g V 25 m Pump Determine the pump head. Also determine the shaft work done by the pump.
Note: Use three decimal places and no need to input the unit. A 36-in-diameter pipeline carries oil (SG = 0.89) at 1 million barrels per day (bbl/day) (1 bbl = 42 U.S. gal). The friction head loss is 13 ft/1000 ft of pipe. It is planned to place pumping stations every 10 mi along the pipe. Estimate the horsepower which must be delivered to the oil by each pump. (in hp)

A four-stage (parallel) pump delivers 15 m3 1950 rpm. It is desired to construct a pump at a certain number of stages in series that should run at 1450 rpm delivering 18m/min with 280m of head in total. What should be the new diameter of the impeller and number of stages? per minute of liquid. The total head obtained is 27m. Initially, the impeller measures 24cm in diameter running at
