Design and Selection of a Pump-Piping System A project requires a pump that will operate with a minimum discharge of 20 L/s against an elevation head of 40 m. The distance between the supply and delivery points is 150 m. A ball check valve will be used in the system that consists of commercial steel pipes. In order to produce a solution that meets the specified needs for the system design, it is required to determine the most economical pipe diameter for the pipeline and select a single pump from the figures below (including its operating conditions) if the total cost (in thousands of dollars) can be expressed as Cd1.75 +0.75P + 18 where d is the pipe diameter [cm] and P is the pump power input [hp]. The followings are required to be conducted: 1. Describe clearly the mathematical model (equations/formulae) used to conduct the system design. 2. Design the pump-piping system (pipeline size, pump selection and total cost) using one of the modern engineering software. 3. Analyze and discuss the different possible designs, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions. 4. Professional and ethical responsibilities have to be considered (e.g. appropriate referencing).

While planning a future expansion, a water distribution pipe will be replaced as shown in Figure 2. The current plan is for the new configuration to have the same head-loss between points A and B once the new pipes are laid. Considering that the physical characteristics of these new pipes will be identical to the previously laid pipe (L, D, CHW), (A) what will the new operational flow be? After years of wear and tear while operating above the required flow, the pipes have prematurely degraded. The Hazen-Williams coefficients have dropped to: CHW₁= 130, CHW2= 135, CHW3= 125.

A tank is going to be installed at the top of a hill to serve an industrial park located at the base of the hill. The bottom of the tank is estimated to be 200 ft above the point of connection to the water main in the industrial park served by the elevated tank. It is further estimated that the pipe from the tank to the centre of the industrial park will be 500 ft in length including equivalent lengths for fittings and valves. What is the maximum water flow that would be available at the centre of the industrial park if the pipe material is lined ductile iron (Hazen- Williams C-factor of 140) with an actual inside diameter of 8.27 in.? Note that no other pressure producing devices, such as pumps, will be used.
