Oil of specific gravity 0.802 and kinematic viscosity 0.000186 m /s flows from tank A to tank B through 305 m of new pipe at the rate of 0.089 m3/s. The available head is 0.161 m. What size pipe should be used?
During the test of a Pelton wheel, the pressure at the end of the 6.10" diameter nozzle was 515 psig when the flow is 2,615 ft/min. The peripheral coefficient is 0.46, the turbine specific speed is 6.20 rpm, and the penstock diameter is 1.5 feet. If the mechanical efficiency is 86% and electrical efficiency is 85%, determine the diameter of wheel in feet.

(a) Water at temperature of 20 °C is pumped from a reservoir to a large open surface storage tank through a piping system with diameter of 10 cm as shown in Figure Q1. A pump with pump head rise ha = 32 – 1 × 10°Q²,Q = is m? installed in this system. Besides, the pipe's fitting components installed in this piping system such as tee and long radius 90° elbows are flanged type. The total pipe length for the entire piping system from reservoir to storage tank is 48 m while the pipe length from reservoir to pump suction side is 8 m. The friction factor of the pipe in this system is estimated to be 0.02. The elevation difference between the reservoir and storage tank are estimated to be 18 m.
