Please answer part a b

Transcribed Image Text:PROBLEM 14
(a) Assuming a 24-in. steel pipe to be rigid, what pressure occurs when a flow of 20 cfs of oil (SG = 0.85) and Es = 250,000 psi, is stopped
suddenly?
(b) If the pipeline is 8000 ft long, how much time should be allowed for closing a valve to avoid water hammer?
PROBLEM 15
If a 24-in. steel pipe 8000 ft long is designed for a stress of 15,000 psi under a maximum static head of 1085 ft of water, how much will the
stress in the walls of the pipe increase when a quick-closing valve stops a flow of 30 cfs?
Es = 300,000 psi, Ep - 30 x 10° psi.
