Water in a reservoir at 20°C enters into a 5 cm diameter horizontal cast iron pipe through a sharp- edged entrance (loss coefficient, K = 0.5) at a flow rate of 0.24 m/min. The water then flows through a turbine and a wide-open globe valve before discharging into the atmosphere. The water level in the reservoir is 40 m above the pipe entrance, and the total length of pipe is 125 m. Determine the power extracted by the turbine.

Applied Fluid Mechanics

A fluid is a substance that is continuously deformed by the application of shear stress. The rate of deformation of a fluid depends on its viscosity. The fluid tries to flow when it interacts with some other system.

In a hydroelectric power plant, water at 20℃ is supplied to the turbine at 1.2 m3/s through a 200 m long, 0.35 m diameter cast iron pipe. The elevation difference between the free surface of the reservoir and the turbine discharge is 115 m and the combined turbine/generator efficiency is 80%. Disregarding minor losses, determine the electric power output (kW).

Try to find (1) the power output during power generation and the total daily power generation; (2) pumping water Hourly power and total daily power demand; (3) Pumped storage power plant efficiency; (4) Adjust the pool capacity? Assuming that the water loss is 8% of the total drop, the combined efficiency of the turbine and generator is 85%, and the efficiency of the pump is 65%.
A water tank is attached to a piping system with a sharp edge inlet (KL=0.5). Determine the velocity of the outlet water if the system has two elbow pipes (KL=1.5), the length of the entire system is 10m, the diameter is 1.5cm, the friction factor is 0.002 and the height between the water and the outlet are 5m.
The drinking water to a village is supplied from a reservoir which is 475 m above and 25 km away from the village. The water is transported from the reservoir to an open-top storage tank in the village via a circular pipe with a diameter of 18 cm and a roughness of 0.15 mm. The population of the village is 1500 people. There are two valves (K=2) and five 90° elbows (K=1.5) along the pipe. Assuming that an average person in the village consumes 225 L/day, determine the power (kW) of the pump needed to transter the water from the reservoir to the storage tank. You can take the density and viscosity of water as 1000 kg/m and 0.001 kg/m s, respectively, and you can neglect the inlet and exit losses and the kinetic energy correction factor effects.
Consider a pipe that has a diameter D = 18 inches and a length L = 2,000 feet. The pipe delivers water from an upper reservoir to a lower reservoir. The water surface elevation of the upper reservoir is 50 feet and the water surface elevation of the lower reservoir is 0 feet. The water temperature is 50°F. Use the Darcy- Weisbach equation with a friction factor f = 0.0125 to evaluate the friction head loss hfric.

If yes, GREAT! If not, find your mistake.
