![A pump rated at 65% efficiency is used to transport water from a large open
reservoir to a point 10m above at a rate of 450 L/min, into a vented tank.
Assuming friction is negligible and that the efficiency of the motor is 77%, how
much electricity is quired to keep the process running for 24 hours?
29.37 kWh
35.28 kWh
56.71 kWh
43.21 kWh
The velocity of water is measured using an orifice meter (throat diameter =
0.06m) in a 0.31-m pipeline. The measured pressure drop across the orifice is
75 kPa. The Reynolds number at the orifice is nearly:
250000
375000
500000
