The Metro Cebu Waterworks System design the pipe by using a 300 mm diam. pipelines made of cast-iron to last for a longer time. The design flow is 60 liter/sec. Pumping stations were established at a distance "L" from each other. If one pump produces 600 KPa, determine the distance between the pumping stations. Use f = 0.035.

A pump with pump head rise ha = 32 – 1 × 10°Q²,Q = is m? installed in this system. Besides, the pipe's fitting components installed in this piping system such as tee and long radius 90° elbows are flanged type. The total pipe length for the entire piping system from reservoir to storage tank is 48 m while the pipe length from reservoir to pump suction side is 8 m. The friction factor of the pipe in this system is estimated to be 0.02. The elevation difference between the reservoir and storage tank are estimated to be 18 m.
