Water is to be pumped from the large tank shown in the figure below with an exit velocity V₂ of 5.6 m/s. It was determined that the original pump (pump 1) that supplies 1 kW of power to the water did not produce the desired velocity. Hence, it is proposed that an additional pump (pump 2) be installed as indicated to increase the flowrate to the desired value. How much power must pump 2 add to the water? The head loss for this flow is h = 230Q², where h is in m when Q is in m³/s. Assume z = 1.8 m, A₁ = 0.06 m², A₂ = 0.03 m². Nozzle area A₂ V₂ N Pump #2 Pipe area A₁ Pump #1

The system presented on Figure 1 pumps water from the left reservoir to ensure a water in the elevated basin stays level. Knowing that the offset from water-surface to water-surface 7.5m and the water temperature is 5oC, you must: a) Determine the out-flow from the basin's orifice; b) Determine the efficiency of the pump (n) feeding the basin if the pump's absorbed power is 2550W; Consider that hs=0 c) Determine how long it will take for the basin to fully empty if the pump ceases to function.
