H.W: A water tank, rectangular in cross section, has the dimensions 20x12m at the top and 6x10m at the bottom and is 3m in height. It is filled with water and has a circular orifice of 5cm diameter at its bottom. Assuming = 0.6 Cd for the orifice, find the equation of the height of water in the tank with time, then compute the time required for empting the tank.

The suction side of a pipe system is as shown in the figure. The pump discharges 495 gpm of water under a total head of 100 ft at 40°F. Atmospheric pressure = 32.7 ft of water. If the required NPSH is 9 ft, will there be a cavitation problem? Please note that 1 cfs equals 449 gpm. 12 ft 6 ft Diameter L = 300 ft Steel = 10 in 5
An open, clean glass tube (0 = 0) is inserted vertically into a pan of water. The surface tension of water is 7.34 x 10-2 N/m. What tube diameter is needed if the water level in the tube is to rise one tube diameter (due to surface tension)?

The circular water pipes shown in the sketch are following full. The velocity of flow (in m/s) in the branch pipe "R" is V = 6 m/s dia = 4 m – મ N=? R V = 5 m/s dia= 2 m
Consider a pond of circular shape, radius R and width B (the width measured in the direction normal to the plane of the sheet). A pipe emerges from the bottom of the pond connected to a pump. This equipment sucks water at a flow rate Q = Kh2, where K is a constant and h(t) the height of the liquid contained in the pond at any instant t. Assume that the pond is initially full (h(0) = R). Determine algebraically the time T it takes for the system to empty.
