Name and briefly describe the six classes of leaks.
Water at 5°C is to be pumped from the river to the bottom of a water tower. The pump is 5 m above the river (dimension "a" on the diagram below) and is supplied by a 6.00 inch schedule 40 pipe. The tank is 19.5 m above the pump (dimension "b" on the diagram below) and is supplied by a 4 inch schedule 40 pipe. The water level in the tank is 4.3 m above the inlet (dimension "c" on the diagram below). The pump delivers 0.021 m/s. Losses are estimated to be 1.2 m between the river and the pump, and 4.2 m between the pump and the tank. Discharge line Suction line Pump River a) Calculate the losses in the suction line in kPa, based on the given head loss in m. kPa b) Calculate velocity in the suction line in m/s. m/s c) What is the pressure at the inlet to the pump in kPa? kPa

Problem Statement Water at 60°F and one atmosphere is being transferred from tank 1 to tank 2 with a 2-hp pump that is 75% efficient, as shown in Figure 8-7. All the piping is 4-inch schedule 40 steel pipe except for the last section, which is 2-inch schedule 40 steel pipe. All elbows are 4-inch diameter, and a reducer is used to connect to the 2-inch pipe. The change in elevation between points 1 and 2 is z2 - z1 = 60 ft. Tank 1 6 ft 4-inch 15 ft 4-inch 300 ft 4-inch 150 ft 4-inch Pump Tank 2 = 90° Elbow = Reducer All piping is schedule 40 steel with diameters given.
