A wood-stave pipe 120m long is to carry 3,400liters/sec across a ravine. Water enters one end of the pipe from an open flume, and discharge at the other end into another flume, and discharges at the other end into another flume. If the difference in elevation between the water surface in the flume is to be 1m, determine the necessary diameter of pipe, assuming well-designed transition (k=0.10, ke=0.20) and neglecting the effect of velocity in the flumes. Use f=0.013.

A horizontal rough concrete pipe (e = 0.60 mm) with a diameter of 0.60 meters and length of 1000 m caries Q = 2.00 m/s of water at T = 20°C from tank A to tank B. If the elevation of the water surface in both tanks are the same (4 m above the pipe) please calculate the required pump head to achieve this flow speed. Also, please check to see if cavitation occurs at the entrance of the pump if the pump is placed halfway between the two tanks. Please do not account for minor losses during these calculations. 4 m Pump

A 25 cm circular pipe carries 2536.06 gpm of water under a pressure of 200 pa. The pipe is laid at an elevation of 10.7 m above mean sea level in Freeport, Texas. What is the total head (in meters) measured with respect to MSL. (Assume Yw=62.32 lb/ft)
An engineer is hired to design a swimming pool 15m long by 6m wide by 2m deep. For water supply, he decideds to lay 600m of 5cm pipe with f=0.020 from a nearby main to the pool. The pipe will discharge freely into the pool during the entire filling process. The average pressure at the water main is 550kpa and the difference in elevation between the two ends of the pipe is 10m, with the discharge end higher than the intake end. Assuming that 10% of the loss in the pipeline are due to transitions, fittings and valves, how long would it take to fill the swimming pool?
