A single pipe of length 1500mand diameter 60 cm connects two reservoirs having a difference of 20 m in their water levels. The pipe is to be replaced by two pipes of the same length and equal diameter 'd to convey 25% more discharge under the same head loss. If the friction factor is assumed to be the same for all the pipes, the value of 'd' is approximately equal to which of the following options? (a) 37.5 cm (c) 45.0 cm (b) 40.0 cm (d) 50.0 cm

2.10. Water leaves a treatment plant in a 500-mm diameter ductile-iron pipeline at a pressure of 600 kPa and at a flow rate of 0.50 m³/s. If the elevation of the pipeline at the treatment plant is 120 m, estimate the pressure in the pipeline 1 km downstream where the elevation is 100 m. Assess whether the pressure in the pipeline would be sufficient to serve the top floor of a 10-story building (approximately 30 m high).
Water is pumped from a supply reservoir to a ductile- iron water-transmission line, as shown in Figure 2.26. The high point of the transmission line is at point A, 1 km downstream of the supply reservoir, and the low point of the transmission line is at point B, 1 km downstream of A. If the flow rate through the pipeline is 1 m3/s, the diameter of the pipe is 750 mm, and the pressure at A is to be 350 kPa, then: (a) estimate the head that must be added by the pump; (b) estimate the power supplied by the pump; and (c) calculate the water pressure at B.

A sprinkler head has a discharge rate of 22.5 gal./min and a coefficient K = 5.65. What pressure is required at the sprinkler head?
Water with kinematic viscosity equal to 1.02 x 10-6 m2/s flows in a 1000m long, 150mm diameter pipe (E = 0.00005) at a rate of 30L/s. Solve for the head loss in the pipe.

M - Problem 3: For these three reservoirs please assume that the elevations of the waterlines in reservoirs 1-3 are: h, 30 m, h₂-20 m, and h, 10 m. Also, please assume that the lengths of pipes 1-3 are L₁ 1000 m, L₂ 2000 m, and L3 = 3000 m; the diameters of all three pipes are D₁ D₂ D₂ = 2.0 m; and the friction coefficients of all three pipes are f f₂=fa=0.015. If you estimate that the total head at Junction "J" is H, = 22 m please: 1) calculate the resulting net volumetric flow rate into junction "J" and 2) determine if the actual total head at junction "J" is above or below H, = 22 m. h₂ Reservoir 1 h₂ 7 Reservoir 2 Pipe D Reservoir 3 ha Pipe 3 Pipe 2 a
