The water system in a suburban area consists of an old 200mm pipeline 760m long which conveys water from a pump to a reservoir whose water surface is 107m higher than the pump. Water is pumped at the rate of 0.07 m³/s. Determine the horsepower saved by replacing the old pipe with a new 250mm pipe. Assume the value of f as equal to 0.033 and 0.022, respectively, for the old and new pipes. Neglect losses of head except friction head.
. A river has a flow rate of 500 m3/s in an upstream point with an elevation of 2000 m. At a point downstream the flow remains the same while the elevation reduces to 200 m. Determine the change of the mechanical energy of the flow between these two points. If there is no hydroelectric power plant built on the river, where did the energy go?
