Question

A pump draws water at 20 liters per second from

reservoir A and lifts it to reservoir B, as shown in

Figure . The head loss from A to 1 is three

times the velocity head in the 150-mm diameter pipe,

and the head loss from 2 to B is fifteen times the

velocity head in the 100-mm diameter pipe.

1. Compute the Power delivered by the pump in kw

( A. 79.07 , B. 48.10 C. 13.08 , D. 57.23)

2. Compute the Pressure head at point 1 in m.

( A. 85.96 , B. 19.74 C. 245.09 , D. 45.90)

3. Pressure head at point 2 in m.

( A. 104.51 , B. 246.67 C. 57.84 , D. 12.69)
