As shown in the figure, the water flows from the ground floor of a three-storey house to the second floor through pipes of 20 mm diameter (average roughness of the pipe material = 0.0015 mm) at a volumetric flow rate of 0.75 L / s. Water is discharged from the system to atmospheric pressure through a tap with a 12 mm diameter outlet. There are 4 winged elbows, one ball valve and one faucet throughout the installation. Calculate the effective pressure at point 1. (psu=998 kg/m3, usu=1.12x10-3 Pa s, g=9.81 m/s2)
Problem 2 A pump is needed in a water supply system. The water is being pumped out of a ground-level storage reservoir with water surface elevation of 149.27 ft and needs to pass over a hill 2 miles away, where the pipe centerline is at elevation 200.00 ft. The flowrate is 22 mgd, pipe diameter is 24 inches, Hazen-Williams friction factor is 110, and pressure at the crest of the hill must be at least 20 psi. (a) What head must the pump provide? (b) How much power will be added to the water? (c) What size motor should be purchased if the pump/motor combination has an efficiency of 80 percent?

Example -5.2- It is required to pump cooling water from storage pond to a condenser in a process plant situated 10 m above the level of the pond. 200 m of 74.2 mm i.d. pipe is available and the pump has the characteristics given below. The head loss in the condenser is equivalent to 16 velocity heads based on the flow in the 74.2 mm pipe. If the friction factor = 0.003, estimate the rate of flow and the power to be supplied to the pump assuming n = 0.5 Q (m³/s) 0.0028 0.0039 0.005 0.0056 0.0059 Ah (m) 23.2 21.3 18.9 15.2 11.0
