Storm Sewers and Detention

The storm drains system transports rainwater or stormwater and other runoff from roads, parking lots, and roof downpipes directly to nearby creeks, rivers, or the sea without any treatment.

Question

Example 8 (Page 271):

If oil (viscosity: \( v = 1 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m}^2/\text{s} \), SG = 0.9) flows from the upper to the lower reservoir at a rate of 0.028 m³/s in the 15 cm (diameter) smooth pipe.

What is the elevation of the oil surface in the upper reservoir?

Formula:
\[
h_L = \sum_{\text{pipe}} f \frac{L}{D} \frac{V^2}{2g} + \sum_{\text{component}} K \frac{V^2}{2g}
\]

Diagram Explanation:

1. Upper Reservoir: The elevation is marked as unknown. Oil flows through a 60 m straight pipe segment.
2. The pipe has a bend with a radius to diameter ratio \( r/D = 2 \).
3. After the bend, the pipe descends 7 m and continues horizontally for 130 m into the lower reservoir.
4. Lower Reservoir: This has a fixed elevation at 130 m.

The diagram illustrates the flow of oil from the upper to the lower reservoir through a system of pipes, indicating the distance and direction of each segment, along with the elevation changes.
