A forty-foot wooden hull fishing vessel sprang an unexpected leak a few days after leaving port. As more water entered the vessel, the engine was flooded, and the vessel eventually sank. Inspection of the vessel during the leak showed that the water was coming from underneath a refrigerated space in the front part of the vessel. In view of its construction style, the bilge underneath the vessel was inaccessible. The underwriter refused to indemnify the insured for the loss of the vessel by claiming that the latter had not exercised diligence to make the vessel seaworthy prior to the developing of the leak. The owner/master of the ship had no knowledge of the leak before the ship started its voyage. Do you think the loss is covered under the policy?

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. You must now (B) quantify the head-loss between points A and B for an operational flow of 200 l/s.

Problem 3 - Eagle Engineering has designed an electromagnetic pump to pump liquid sodium. The sodium moves through a pipe at A with pressure of 20 psig, then passes through the rectangular duct where it is pumped by an electromagnetic force giving it a 25-ft pump head. The liquid sodium emerges at B through a 2-inch-diameter pipe. Eagle Engineering needs to determine the value of the restraining force (F) on each arm to keep the pipe stationary. Determine this value for Eagle Engineering. For liquid sodium use a specific weight of 53.2 Ibr/ft³ B 15 ft/s
Coming home after the end of the winter semester, you find that your family’s swimming pool has not be maintained well. In particular, it has no chlorine residual at all, and it is full of tree leaves. You buy a concentrated chlorine solution (1% as Cl2) and begin to meter it into the pool at a rate of 100 mL/hour. The pool has a volume of 200 m3. You also add new water, and remove in-pool water, at a rate of 3.785 L/minute. The chlorine reacts with the organic matter in the with a rate of 0.5/hour. How long will it take to get the Cl2 residual up to 1 mg/L if you add Cl2 continously.
