Problem 3. A pump is installed in a 250-m-long pipeline to raise water (v = 1 x 10-6 m²/s)55 m from a reservoir to an elevated tank. The pipe is ductile iron with a diameter of 80cm and a flow rate of 2.19 m³/s. The pump is placed outside the supply reservoir with acenterline elevation of 1.5 m below the reservoir water surface. Determine the maximumdistance, Lmax, in meters that the pump could be installed away from the supply reservoir(the allowable length of the suction line) without encountering cavitation problems. Therequired net-positive suction head is NPSH = 4.75 m and the water is at 30° C.Total minor losses for the entire pipeline are 17.8 times the velocity head, including exit loss.Minor losses in the suction line are 5.0 times the velocity head.

A pump is installed to deliver water from a reservoir of surface elevation zero, to another of elevation 290 ft. The 10 inch-diameter suction pipe (f=0.022) is 90 ft long and the 8-in-diameer discharge pipe (f=0.028) is 4900 ft long. The pump characteristic is defined by hp= 365-20Q2 where hp, the pump head, is in feet and Q is in cubic feet per second. What is the rate at which the pump will deliver the water?

Design a pipe system to supply water at 20° C from the elevated tank to the demand point at the discharge rate of 2.5 m3/s (see figure below). Take these steps:1. Identify your system elements. You have 400 m long pipe system that has one 90° bends. 2. Account for minor losses caused by the bend (use K = 0.18), by the valve (use K = 0.2), entrance loss from elevated tank to pipe (use K = 1) and exit loss from pipe to demand point (use K = 0.5) 3. Set the Energy equation to find the total head loss magnitude (hL). 4. Break down the total loss into friction (hf) and minor losses (hM). Use D-W and minor loss equations to find a relationship between Diameter (D) and Friction Factor (f) (both are unknown). In the equation, replace velocity with Q/A to have only D and f as unknowns. 5. Your other equation to find the 2 unknowns is the Moody diagram. Because both equations are non-linear, numerical iteration is needed. After contacting a nearby vendor, you realize that a convenient pipe…
