At a certain place in Indonesia, the transplantation of rice takes 16 days, and the total depth of water required by the crop is 60 cm on the field. During this transplantation period of 16 days, rain starts falling and about 10 cm of rain is being utilised to fulfil the rice demand. Find the duty of irrigation water required for rice during transplanting period. (a) Assuming 25% losses of water in water courses, find the duty of water at the head of the watercourse(b) Find the duty of water at the head of distributary, assuming 15% losses from the distributary head to the watercourse head

Q#2 The moisture holding capacity of the soil in a 100-hectare farm is 18 cm/m, the field is to be irrigated when 50% of t'ne available moisture in the root zone is depleted. The irrigation water is to be supplied by a pump working for 10 hours a day, and water application efficiency is 75%. Details of crops planned for cultivation area are as follows: Root z'one depth (m) Peak rate of moisture use (mm/day) 5 4 Crop X Y Solve for 1) The capacity of irrigation system required, to irrigate crop X in 36 hectares. 2) The area of crop Y that can be irrigated when the available capacity of irrigation is 40 L/s. 1 0.8
Crops are grown in a field having soil, which has field capacity of 30% and permanent wilting point of 13%. The effective depth of root zone is 80 cm. Irrigation water is supplied when the average soil moisture drops to 20%. Consider density of the soil as 1500 kg/m³ and density of water as 1000 kg/m³. If the daily consumptive use of water for the crops is 2 mm, the frequency of irrigating the crops (in days), is
i need help with this please Design a hydrocooling unit that can cool fruits andvegetables from 30 to 5°C at a rate of 20,000 kg/h under thefollowing conditions:The unit will be of flood type, which will cool the productsas they are conveyed into the channel filled with water. Theproducts will be dropped into the channel filled with water atone end and be picked up at the other end. The channel can beas wide as 3 m and as high as 90 cm. The water is to be circulated and cooled by the evaporator section of a refrigerationsystem. The refrigerant temperature inside the coils is to be–2°C, and the water temperature is not to drop below 1°C andnot to exceed 6°C.Assuming reasonable values for the average product density,specific heat, and porosity (the fraction of air volume in abox), recommend reasonable values for (a) the water velocitythrough the channel and (b) the refrigeration capacity of therefrigeration system.
