alculate the required pipe diameter to avoid cavitation, if the pump delivers Q = 30US gallon/min water from a closed tank, where the pressure (above the water level) is p = 40kPa. The equivalent length of the smoothened concrete pipe on the suction side is 12m while the suction flange of the pump is 8m below the water level. The vapour pressure at the given water temperature is 2.8kPa. The required net positive suction head is NPSHr = 3.2m.

(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.
